Membership Level

Interested Party
A party who has requested to be notified of NWCC activities including meetings and publications, or workshops in areas they have requested.
Associate Member
Associate Members are stakeholders interested in specific NWCC topics or projects, but who do not assume all the responsibilities of NWCC Members. Associate Members are notified of specific workgroup or meeting planning groups in which they have shown a specific interest. These individuals may be involved in the planning of workshops and development of publications relevant to that interest area. Associate Members will be consulted for consensus agreement on products or documents at the workgroup level, but they are not involved in consensus decision making at the NWCC or Steering Committee levels. Associate Members may comment on NWCC activities and products. They are not involved in the administrative workings of the NWCC.
Member
A NWCC member is an individual that represents a sector. Members of the NWCC are expected to:

contribute to at least one substantive NWCC project, meeting, workshop, or product on an annual basis; and
participate in development of NWCC work plan revised on an annual basis;
take part in consensus decision making related to workplan, comments or letters on specific issues, products, and publications;
attend a majority ( 2 out of 3) of NWCC Business Meetings.

Where appropriate, Members update individuals and organizations in their sector about NWCC activities and products. Members are responsible for bringing the views of their constituent groups to the Committee process and informing their constituents of major activities and Committee resolutions. Members are free to voice their individual viewpoints.. Membership from each sector is to be representative of all NWCC stakeholders to ensure balance and adherence to the NWCC mission/vision. Members who represent a sector and the NWCC Steering Committee approve addition of a new Member.

A.1. Alternates. Designated alternates for an individual member will be allowed. If a member is unable to attend a meeting he or she will make their views on the agenda known to an alternate, another member or to the facilitator. It is the responsibility of both the alternate and the Committee Members to keep their alternates informed of NWCC activities and decisions.

A.2. Member Withdrawl. If a member wishes to withdraw from the Committee, he or she is requested to give the group his or her reasons for withdrawing. The interest group sector will decide at the time a member withdraws whether to replace that member or not.
