Membership

There are two types of membership in the Canadian Philosophical Association: ordinary and student. Every new or renewed annual membership entitles the member to receive Dialogue, the Association's quarterly publication, for one year.

Ordinary Membership

Ordinary members hold a degree in philosophy, or the equivalent, or are or have been a teacher of philosophy at an institute of higher learning (this includes high schools). Full fees apply to ordinary members with full-time employment. For joint members (two members of the same family), the calculation is based on combined salaries. A reduced fee is available for those who work part-time, are unemployed or retired. The ‘associate member' category (individuals interested in the objectives of the Association but outside the other categories) has been removed; those members are now considered ‘ordinary members'.

Ordinary Membership	Individual Fee	Joint Fee
Income < 50K	$100 per year	$120 per year
Income = 50-75K	$122 per year	$142 per year
Income > 75K	$140 per year	$160 per year
Reduced fee	$75 per year	n/a

Student Membership

Applicants must be full-time students enrolled in a programme in philosophy. If you are paying your membership by mail or fax, students must send a copy of their student card, the membership form and payment to the CPA's main office.
