Membership Replacement
Membership in NACE is non-transferable and is the property of who pays the membership dues. Members replacing a member at a location will be considered the new member and the previous employee is considered a transitional member. The new member will take over the membership, including the paid through date, and the transitional member will have 90 days to reinstate their membership fees. Reinstatement fees will not be assessed up to 90 days and the transitional member will have member privileges for 90 days. Please contact the NACE membership department with questions regarding NACE membership replacement.
