Membership and Program Policy

Membership, enrollment, and participation in Institute programs are subject to the Institute’s approval processes, operational standards, and applicable eligibility requirements. The Institute may define different access levels, privileges, responsibilities, and review standards across membership tiers, program categories, certification pathways, and partnership structures. Submission of an application, inquiry, payment, or form does not by itself guarantee acceptance, certification, partnership, registry inclusion, or continued access. The Institute may review, suspend, restrict, or end participation where standards are not met, information is inaccurate, conduct is improper, fees remain unpaid, or institutional conditions require intervention. Any specific benefits, access rights, or obligations should be interpreted according to the Institute’s official program or membership framework in force at the relevant time.
