How NCCI Membership Works
Membership is institutionally based. Once your institution joins NCCI, all faculty and staff are eligible to access all NCCI resources.
Institutions administratively controlled by a system or district organization and which meet the above cited eligibility criteria for institutional membership must maintain separate institutional memberships. Institutions meeting the eligibility criteria may not be included in a system or district membership. System offices need to maintain separate institutional memberships. System Offices with no student enrollments should obtain an institutional membership by paying the minimum institutional membership fee.
