IGS North America Update:
Renewing Membership
O
By Ben Leshchinsky
ne of the most significant impacts you can have on your field is to renew your
professional memberships early in the year. This gives organizations the funding
they need to continue providing education and networking opportunities, promote the
issues that support your work, offer scholarships, etc.
IGS North America (IGS-NA) encourages you to ensure that your benefactor or
individual memberships are current. Visit igs-na.org/membership or contact the main
office: info@igs-na.org.
