Membership fees

Membership to CNA is secured through an annual fee. Payment is due in full once membership is approved, and at the start of each calendar year from there onwards.

CNA is a not-for-profit organisation and delivering value to members will always remain a priority. To promote and encourage access to the association, the statutes of CNA contain a clear policy on membership fees, with a limit on future increases.
