Notes: Chapter-Only memberships are not available. Companies can have only one membership. The Connector (MRA’s membership roster) is also included with membership.

^ Every member within the membership is assigned a Primary Chapter. Some levels include extra Chapter memberships within the Core Benefits that can be assigned to members within the membership.
* Level A is a non-transferable membership. The membership stays with the individual.
** Additional memberships are available at Levels G and H only for $225 each. Additional Members receive all Core Benefits, however the company will not receive more choices for additional benefits.
± Selected products include: Conference registrations, Sponsorships, Exhibitor Contracts and On-the-Road Workshops. More products will be added as they are introduced in 2007.

Grid Two: The Additional Benefits:
The more members included in your membership, the more Additional Benefits you can choose.

√ = additional benefit available at this level Members must choose all of their additional benefits upon renewal.
Choices are final. Also, once choice(s) of Chapter and/or IMRO membership(s) are applied to a member, it cannot be transferred to another member. Refunds cannot be granted for additional benefits unused by the end of the renewed membership period.
