What is Institutional Membership?
APPAM Institutional Memberships are available to schools, foundations, government agencies, nonprofit and for-profit organizations, and research organizations that contribute to the advancement of the public policy field.
APPAM membership ensures that you and your students or colleagues are on the cutting edge of policy analysis and management issues that affect all policy researchers.
Institutional Member Benefits
Institutional Membership with APPAM provides professional development opportunities, education, a community of peers, and more. Institutional Members have exclusive access to discounts and promotional opportunities with APPAM's audience. Additionally, Institutional Members are offered unique benefits at our Annual Fall Research Conference.
Institutional Members are part of the Committee of Institutional Representatives and play a key role in steering the association. The Committee meets twice a year (and can connect at other times in between) to discuss issues of importance to all Institutional Members, such as academic trends, pedagogy, enrollment statistics, and employment readiness for graduate students. This community offers a great opportunity to connect with other academics, practitioners, think tanks, government agencies, research organizations, and other stakeholders engaged in the practice and dissemination of research.
- While Institutional Membership does not confer individual membership to all staff at a member organization, Institutional Members receive several complimentary memberships to provide staff or students at their discretion.
- We welcome multiple units within an organization to join as Institutional Members, so that each may have their own representative, member benefits, and listing within the member directory.
Professional Development
Awards: APPAM offers prestigious awards that recognize excellence in policy research, including those only available for Institutional Members, such as the PhD Dissertation Award and the three Equity & Inclusion Fellowship cohorts.
APPAM Career Connections: Find top candidates with our streamlined job board and post listings at no cost for Institutional Members.
Institutional Member Forums: Exclusive to Institutional Members, APPAM offers the opportunity to host an Institutional Member Forum. APPAM and the Institutional Member work together to co-host an event around a relevant policy topic at the institution free of charge to attendees.
Journal of Policy Analysis and Management (JPAM): Institutional Members receive a complimentary subscription to JPAM, our influential scholarly journal with the latest research from leading experts. The journal is accessible from individual member profiles and the Institutional Representative's profile.
Webinars: All members have access to our library of professional development podcasts and webinars, discussing academic conferences, interview prep, faculty position negotiation, deep dives on policy hot topics, and more. Institutional Members are eligible to co-sponsor these resources and present on recent research.
APPAM Newsletters: All Institutional Members receive dedicated monthly newsletters from APPAM, featuring member news, events, and opportunities to get involved.

Community of Peers
APPAM Communities: Propose a new APPAM Community group or serve as a chair for one of these invaluable opportunities for connection. These groups meet virtually and in-person based on a shared affinity such as research type, identity, and more.
E-Lists: APPAM strives to provide our members with access to a broad collection of tools, content, practical resources, and a smart and vibrant community of peers via the E-List Member Forum Communities. These groups serve as a platform to solicit the advice of your peers, benefit from their experience, and participate in ongoing conversations.
Membership Directory: This members-only Institutional and Individual Member database allows you to search for colleagues based on location, research topic, and member type. Did you meet someone at the last conference you attended? Many members build future research collaborations by connecting via the directory.
Policy Council Voting and Nominations: The Committee of Institutional Members elects one person to the Policy Council each year. Institutional Members can also nominate students for various APPAM opportunities and awards throughout the year, including Student Representatives to the Policy Council.
Westat's APPAM institutional membership has been a tremendous source of value to our organization. Through APPAM, we are part of a strong community of experts-researchers, practitioners, and peer organizations-working to improve people's lives through the impact of public policy. We benefit not only from APPAM's professional network, but also the opportunities to drive engagement with our work and mission that are available to institutional members. I served as APPAM's Institutional Representatives Chair for two years and during that time, I became even more engaged in the organization and saw up close all the good APPAM does. I am proud to be part of this great group of people doing meaningful work.
