Membership Categories

No matter what size office, how many employees, your level of employment or your budget – IPMA-HR has a member category that meets your needs!

Membership Categories:

Agencies (Covered Staff Members)

U.S. Agencies: Agencies currently conducting public HR functions at a Federal, State or Local level, special district or school district. Dues are based on number of staff you wish to be covered* by membership. (See Membership Fees). 

International Agencies: Agencies currently conducting Public HR functions located outside of the United States. 

Associates: Independent consulting groups or other for-profit or private sector companies. Dues are based on number of staff you wish to be covered* by membership. (See Membership Fees)

New HR Professionals: Enroll your new HR staff members (with fewer than 5 years in the profession) in IPMA-HR at a special $50 individual online membership rate. This special online membership offers all the same member benefits that you and your covered staff already receive—they’ll just receive their member benefits online. Sign up today!

*Covered staff of Agencies and Associates will receive all the benefits of membership including publications, discounts and access. Staff who are not covered do not receive these benefits. Covered staff must be submitted with membership application. You can upgrade your membership and add staff at anytime.
