Becoming a member

Membership of the Society shall be opened to all persons and organizations involved in the study, application or dissemination of sugar cane technology.

Membership is for a period of about three years that runs from the end of one Congress to the end of the next.

Although it expires with that Congress, members will continue to receive newsletters and announcements but they must renew in order to participate in any activity during the next inter-congress period.

Attendance at and participation in the congress and workshops is restricted to members only.

Technologists/scientists/managers or employees of member organisations must join as individual members to participate in ISSCT activities.

Except that, each corporate member is entitled to one free individual member as corporate representative.

I wish to draw your attention that ISSCT Executive Committee and Council have decided at the XXIX Congress that henceforth membership cards and receipts will no more be sent by post because this procedure is costly, most often delivery takes weeks and at times the cards and receipts get lost in the post.

You will need to quote your membership card number when you register for workshops and congress. You may use the original electronic copy to this end. In case you lose the membership card, please let us know and we will resend it to you.

Inadequate provision and failure to follow the procedures may delay registration considerably.
