NFRC's 2010 Membership Category and
Dues Schedule
All NFRC members must
belong to one of the designated membership categories described
below. Please review these categories carefully and select the
category that you believe best describes your organization. Please
note that any organization qualified for the Fenestration Industry
category and another membership category will be placed in the
Fenestration Industry category. In addition, any organization
that qualifies both in the Lab category and another membership
category will be placed in the Lab category. Please also note
that NFRC's three basic membership categories correspond directly
with the three categories established for NFRC's Board of Directors.
Therefore, representatives of NFRC members are eligible to run
for Board seats in the same category as their organization's membership
category.
NFRC's Board of Directors
must review and, as appropriate, approve your organization's admission
to NFRC membership and your organization's membership category.
The Board may ask for additional information to confirm the most
appropriate membership category for your organization
