Levels of Membership
(Admission to membership and transfer to a
higher grade shall require the approval of the Board.)
The membership of the
Association shall be open to any person with an interest in traffic safety, have
experience with data, or actively involved in the design,
development, maintenance, and/or operation of transportation safety information
systems or in their administration and use. This includes traffic safety
data collectors, users, and managers. Acceptance into membership requires
approval by the Board and payment of dues.
Membership shall consist of
Fellow, Member, and Associate grades. All members shall be equally entitled to
all privileges of the Association excepting that only Fellows shall be eligible
to hold office as President or Vice President, and that only Fellows and Members
shall be eligible to hold office on the Board.
 | Fellow: Annual dues $50
Having more than 15 years of experience in traffic safety data systems.
There shall be no direct admission to the
grade of Fellow. To be eligible for transfer to the grade of Fellow an
applicant shall have demonstrated an active commitment and contribution to
the work of the Association or the profession. The applicant must also have
been in the grade of Member for at least five years.
|
| (Full) Member: Annual dues $25
Having more than 5 years of experience in traffic safety data
systems. To be eligible for
admission or transfer to the grade of Member an applicant shall have five
years of professional experience in transportation, transportation safety,
information technology, or allied fields. The Board may adopt policies
granting a maximum of four years credit towards the five-year requirement
for acceptable academic work.
|
| Associate: Annual dues $25
Anyone working with traffic safety data systems as a
manager, collector, or user of the data.
To be eligible for admission to the grade of
Associate an applicant shall be actively involved in the design,

information systems or in their administration and use.

Emeritus Member:
To be eligible for admission to the grade of Emeritus, the individual shall
be a current or former member of the Association, shall have made
significant contributions to both the Association and the profession, and
shall no longer be actively involved in transportation safety information
systems. As used in this paragraph, the word “Association” refers not only
to the current Association but also to its predecessor organizations.
Emeritus membership is an honor conferred by the Board on a small number of
people. Emeritus members pay no dues, but are considered Voting Members.
They are encouraged to participate in the activities of the Association and
lend their expertise. Emeritus Members retain the rank and privileges of
the membership grade they occupied prior to election to Emeritus status and
may alternatively be known as Fellow Emeritus, (full) Member Emeritus, or
Associate Emeritus as appropriate.
|
|
Voting Members
are those members whose dues are no more than three (3) months in arrears
and who are otherwise in good standing. (Note: “Voting Member” is not a
grade of membership but rather a category of membership)
|
|
Affiliate Members
are organizations, not individuals, that support the Association. While
Affiliate Member organizations have no direct vote in the Association’s
affairs, they are encouraged to participate in the activities of the
Association. (Individuals associated with Affiliate Member organizations
may be Voting Members if they are so qualified and appropriately approved.)
