Membership entitles you to attend LonSSMA meetings. There are 10 a year (we don’t meet in July and August, obviously!). Our meetings consist of best practice and support meetings (4 a year), professional training and development sessions (4 a year) and social/networking events (2 a year). You will also have access to any reports we produce, as well as group emails/forums/chat groups with like-minded people, who all know what you’re talking about when you need some advice.
There are two types of membership:
Individual
Paid for by you, the membership belongs to you and you continue to be a member even if you leave your school.
Institutional
Paid for by your school, the membership belongs to the school, and if you leave the school your membership is passed on to your successor.
If you first join LonSSMA between January and June, you pay 100% of the fees. If you join July to December, then you pay 50% for the first year, and renew your membership in January.
Please see our Constitution for more details of the terms and conditions of membership and fees.
