ISCB multi year and lifetime memberships offers As an alternative to the single year membership ISCB has always offered, we also offer the option of a multiple-year membership for up to 5 years from the date of registration, or a lifetime membership that will never expire. ISCB offers a discount to members that purchase multi-year memberships (2 years -5%; 3 years -10%, 4 years -15%; 5 years -20%).
The following restrictions apply to the multi-year and lifetime membership categories:
- Multi-year and lifetime membership categories are only available at the Professional level, and are offered among the registration options after selecting Professional as the membership category.
- All the membership benefits of the one-year membership category apply to the multi-year and lifetime membership categories.
- The ISCB will invoice additional charges in cases where a member moves to a country in a higher dues category. The according country list is available on the ISCB portal site.
- The additional membership fees will be calculated on a yearly pro rata base.
- The ISCB will not refund fees for the reverse case where a member moves to a country in a lower dues category.
- A change in the economy classification of a country by the World Bank in a subsequent year will not result in a change in dues for the duration of existing multi-year or lifetime memberships.
- The multi-year and lifetime memberships are non-refundable in the event of a membership cancellation at any time after purchase.
- ISCB will cover costs in cases where the ISCB adds benefits to the general membership package (provided with the one-year membership) and which generate additional internal costs to the ISCB (e.g. additional sponsored journal subscriptions).
