The price for each Society BASIC membership is consistent (ie, same price for each membership added to IEEE membership, beyond that which is included).
Society ENHANCED memberships may contain variable components and are priced a la carte.

9. Proposed Model Principles: Society ENHANCED Membership
Society ENHANCED membership offerings will vary by Society
Components will vary
Prices will vary
Memberships will be offered at join/renew/add
Each Society, however, will only have one ENHANCED membership model.

10. What Happens Next?
Go back to your AdComs and colleagues and get buy-in!
Consider how alternate membership options could enable economic win-wins
Bring your thoughts to the web forums:
Consider options for bundling products or what to make Basic/Enhanced in your membership packages

11. What does a Member get?
Societies can self-manage their eMembership package
each Society determines the bundle of services and products to be included in their Basic Membership under the proposed model.
each Society should have the independence to manage how they elect to cover the costs of their membership.
For instance, Basic Membership may include all, some or one product such as: eNewsletter, eMagazine, community access, web education, etc.
