2. Associate Member: A member who does not meet the criteria for full membership, but demonstrates a vested interest in the promotion of School Psychology. Members may include (but are not limited to) retired School Psychologists, Registered Psychologists working in post-secondary or early childhood education, or Registered Psychologists holding a graduate degree in School Psychology who are working outside the K-12 school system.  Associate members do not have voting rights nor can they hold an executive position.

3. Student Member: Psychology graduate students/interns who are interested in learning about School Psychology and demonstrate a vested interest in the promotion of School Psychology. Student members do not have voting rights.

4. Honorary Member: Professionals who are identified as contributing exceptional service or contributions to the school psychology and school communities.

Candidates for membership shall apply to PIE and complete an application form. This form will then be reviewed by the PIE executive and recommended for/against approval via the above membership criteria and PIE executive majority vote.  Any member may withdraw from PIE by giving written notice of SIC withdrawal to the PIE Executive. For the convenience of members and the executive, membership will automatically roll over each year as long as the member continues to meet the criteria for membership. The PIE executive will survey members to help maintain accurate membership data.

Full Members of PIE are eligible for:

• Election to the PIE Executive

• Appointment to chair or to be a member of a committee

• Make nominations for elections

• Vote for PIE Executive members or any matter at all general meetings
