* Note to Members:

During our Annual General Meeting held in Banff on September 26^th, 2012 a resolution was passed to increase our membership fee from $50 to $100 a year. This increase will take place in 2013 and coincides with our decision to include the “Journal of Threat Assessment” as part of the benefits of your membership with CATAP. This journal is a brand new publication and will include the latest research and trends in the field of Threat Assessment. (ATAP has also decided to include the journal as part of the benefits provided to their members). Other benefits to your membership in CATAP include; reduced conference registration fees, reduced conference and fees at other affiliated conferences, such as ATAP, access to international threat assessment contacts and inclusion on a multi-level internationally recognized accreditation process (more info to come!).

It was also agreed at the AGM to annualize our renewal dates for membership to April 1^st of every year. All memberships renewed or initiated in the first quarter of 2013 will be valid until March 31^st 2014. All memberships opened in 2012 will be valid until March 31^st 2013. As we transition to this standardized renewal process there will undoubtedly be a few challenges, please be patient and call us to discuss exceptions to the process!

Please e-mail our membership coordinators if you have any questions about the membership process
