Membership to IDC is by invitation, and is furthermore subject to fees and board approval. If you are interested in membership, you could apply for “prospective membership status”. Application fee for membership is non-refundable if your application is rejected. The first year membership fee is waived for approved applicants. To apply for “prospective membership status”, applicants are needed to pay the “prospective membership fees” and fill the “prospective membership form” which will be send upon request. Members, who wish to renew their membership, are required to fill the “membership renewal form” which could be requested from the IDC secretary.

Members who are accepted to the organization could use and integrate the IDC member logos to their communications. You can use the IDC Member mark on email signatures, online profiles, websites or printed material such as resumes or business cards to promote your membership in IDC and your professionalism.

The IDC Member Icon is an IDC member benefit and should not be shared with others who are not IDC members. The purpose of the IDC membership logo is to highlight that you are part of a larger professional group representing best practices in the industry. The logo could potentially provide further authority and trust for your organization since being a member of IDC could empower your consumers, audience and clients to reach you easier.

International Design Club Members are presented the IDC Membership Certificate personalized to their names. The IDC Member Certificate could be exposed in your office to highlight that you are a member in good standing of the International Design Club.
