New to SND or looking to reengage with us? The Society for News Design is reducing its membership fee for professionals to $55 per year. This move will make our organization more accessible to the broader journalism community and solidify ourselves as the leading trade organization for cross-platform news design. Educators will now pay the same $55 rate as professionals. Three-year memberships are still available, now for $150. Student membership is $20. Members from emerging economies are eligible for a 75% reduced individual membership rate. Financially conscious individuals can join SND using a trust-based tier of $25 USD.
SND uses a secure site for credit card transactions and does not share personal or credit card information in adherence with federal privacy regulations.
