Join ISM Online

Join ISM today and become part of a powerful network of 40,000 supply management professionals who lead and shape supply management today and in the future.

Regular Membership — includes membership with, and benefits from, both ISM and your choice of one of 160+ affiliated organizations. ISM's affiliates offer benefits that include volunteer and leadership opportunities, professional development opportunities, valuable contacts with your peers including local networking, educational events to keep you current on supply management topics and trends, certification preparation and opportunities to accrue CEHs for recertification while taking advantage of affiliate member pricing. While most people select an affiliated organization based on their location, non-geographic, industry-based affiliates are available as well. This category of membership is by far the most popular option, comprising 85% of our total membership.

Direct Membership — includes membership with and benefits from ISM only. No affiliate membership is included. This category of membership is generally preferable for those that do not have a geographic affiliate nearby or a non-geographic affiliate within their industry or area of interest. Automatic membership renewal available.

International Membership — essentially Regular Membership for those living/working outside the United States. This category of membership includes membership with, and benefits from, both ISM and your choice of one of a growing number of international affiliates including Canada, China, France, Mexico, South East Asia and more.

* Those living outside the United States may also join as a Regular member through any of ISM's 165+ affiliates (beneficial for those that travel to a specific location often or work in a specific industry) or as a Direct member (beneficial for those that live in countries that do not yet have an ISM affiliate established).
