Dear ISTAT Members,
With the year rapidly coming to a close we look forward to 2023 with a mindset of continued growth and opportunities for serving our membership.
Each year ISTAT invests more than 1 million dollars in complimentary member benefits. Opportunities for members to connect and grow continue to increase year after year with new offerings including conferences, receptions, online offerings and much more. Some of the many investments we have made in member offerings over the past few years include expanded holiday receptions, a Chinese New Year Reception, ISTAT events in Dublin in January, airshow receptions and hubs, our Sustainability Symposium and our newly created ISTAT Online offerings (including Learning Labs and Podcasts). We look forward to adding even more member benefits and enhancements in the year ahead.
As ISTAT adds new member benefits, the Board of Directors also evaluates offerings relative to the cost of membership. ISTAT dues have not increased in more than a decade. With the rising costs to provide members with the many added benefits we offer, coupled with the increased operating costs of our management company, the Board has made the difficult decision to increase dues heading into 2023. Our new dues structure will be as follows:
Corporate: $2,250 | Additional Members: $300
Individual: $500
ISTAT remains committed to providing the best-in-class conferences and educational/networking opportunities for our members along with our industry leading appraiser program. Our mission will continue to include support for the ISTAT Foundation and terrific work it does in providing scholarships, internships and grants that support our industry as well as critical humanitarian relief. Given all we do, as a member run organization, ISTAT continues to offer an unparalleled value to our members.
