ISQGD Annual Membership Overview
ISQGD Annual Membership is designed to keep participants connected with the Society's
academic, educational, outreach, and scholarly activities. Participation in regular ISQGD
club activities is free and does not require a separate club membership fee.

Annual Members receive a 20% discount on eligible ISQGD activity registration fees.
