Senior Members

In 2008 the INNS introduced a new membership category of Senior Member to recognize INNS members for their contributions, and to allow for a progression of the INNS members to a higher recognition membership status. The annual call for Senior Member Nominations generally takes place during the spring, under the following conditions:
  • A regular or affiliate member of the INNS, who has been an INNS member for at least 5 years, can be nominated by an INNS member for Senior Member. Self-nominations will also be accepted.
  • The nominee must have demonstrated a significant contribution to the theory and/or applications and/or education and promotion of the subject discipline, and this must be stated in the nomination letter.
  • Final confirmation of the Senior Members will be made by the INNS Board of Governors and appropriate announcements will then be made in various INNS communications. 
  • New Senior Members will receive an updated membership certificate upon request.
