Membership FAQ's

How do I become an IFMA member?

It's easy - memberships are managed by IFMA National, not at the local Chapter level. We are here to assist you every step of the way. To start, visit the Membership section of the IFMA website, where you will find the benefits of membership, dues structure information, and membership applications.

Am I automatically affiliated with the Central PA Chapter if I become an IFMA member?

No, but every new IFMA member must affiliate with a local chapter their first year of membership. Dues are based on membership categories, and chapter dues are additional. You can learn more about the actual cost of membership here.

Does the membership cover anyone from my company?

No, each membership is based upon an individual, not a company. Others from your company are welcome to attend events; however, they will pay the non-member cost to attend. Multiple people form the same company may absolutely become members.

How can I get involved?

There are many ways to lend a hand to our chapter, and we welcome all of them. To get started, you must be an IFMA member in good standing affiliated with this chapter. From there, peruse our various committee's and see what interests you. Our board members are always willing to connect you with one of our committee chairs who can share the ins and outs of the committee you are interested in. 

What if I need to change my membership status or contact details?

We know life moves quickly and changes are always occurring. Simple contact information changes may be sent directly to IFMA National to the Membership Team at IFMA by contacting [email protected]. Any changes made to your membership profile at IFMA National, will be updated on our local website once a membership roster is uploaded. You also have the option of logging into our local chapter's site to make changes to your membership profile as well. 

What if I am having trouble accessing the website?

Login credentials for the local chapter website are managed by your local chapter administrators can you can reach them by emailing [email protected]. If you are having trouble logging into the IFMA.org website, again it's a simple email to [email protected]. 

I have more questions - where should I go?
