Individual membership is for practitioners, consultants, and professionals. Organization membership provides team seats, portfolio tools, and institutional benefits for companies, nonprofits, and institutions working with the Standard.
Can I try the online community before committing?
Yes. The Open tier is free and gives you access to the Standard, the directory, and public webcasts. Upgrade to Changemaker or an organization tier when you are ready for full access.
Do members get discounts on certification?
Yes. Changemaker and organization members receive discounted certification pricing. Ladder and Arc organization tiers include volume pricing for portfolio rollouts.
Is the Education tier really for students and nonprofits?
Yes. The Education tier is income-qualified and available to students, early-career professionals (under three years of experience), and staff at nonprofits with budgets under $5M. Self-reported, honor system.
How do organization seats work?
Each organization membership tier (Standing, Ladder, and Arc) includes a set number of team seats. Each seat holder gets full individual-level access (templates, courses, network, ROSSI). Contact our team to adjust seat assignments as needed.
Can I earn CEUs through the online community?
Yes. Courses, webcasts, and peer learning sessions in the online community carry CEU credit toward SEAM AP renewal.
The Standard is open. Membership is how you use it.
