CIGRÉ has four categories of members as follows:

• Individual members;
• Collective members - these may be public or private companies, universities, government departments, scientific or research associations, trade associations;
• Young Members / NGN members (in the UK only);
• Honorary members.

NGN Membership

• NGN Members can only exist as an individual member. No collective memberships will be considered.
• NGN MEMBERSHIP
  Young professionals such as graduate engineers, part-time MSc students working in industry and full/part-time PhD students can apply for a full NGN membership.
  CIGRÉ-UK NGN facilitates the entrance of young professionals to CIGRÉ. NGN offer subsidised membership for the first three years, after which it is envisioned that members realise the value of their membership and become fee paying CIGRÉ members. The subsidy is available only to those who actively contribute to NGN: active involvement could include writing technical articles or participating in seminars to simply attending NGN technical events. Inactive members may forfeit subsidised membership at the discretion of the NGN Chairman.
• NGN ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP
  This category applies to full-time MSc students. An associate NGN member is able to take part in all the events/activities organised by CIGRÉ UK NGN. However they do not qualify for a full membership and are not registered with the CIGRÉ central office in Paris. After completion of the MSc, if the Associate Member wishes to stay in the UK and work in industry or academia, he or she can apply for full NGN membership.
  
• Individuals with active membership will qualify for zero membership fees.
