Individual
Becoming an individual member is the first step to SFPE membership and is the Society’s most popular membership level. Individual membership includes any person who supports the goals and objectives of the Society, regardless of background.
Professional
Almost every individual member aspires to be an SFPE Professional Member (PMSFPE). This level is well-regarded and known throughout the profession as the gold standard, indicating a commitment, including both education and experience, second to none.
Fellow
A Fellow is the highest professional honour of SFPE and bestowed on no more than 10-percent of the Society’s living membership. Fellow is a grade of membership, not a designation. SFPE’s fellows have amassed significant accomplishment and stature in SFPE.
