We have a number of membership categories, and the active membership category is essentially everyone who is a practising journalist. Our organization began as a group of news directors and news managers, and it has expanded over time to include people who've practised.... It used to be just radio and television, and with the changing times, digital has been added, and so we're expanding the organization to include pretty much anyone who is a practising journalist who wishes to abide by the code of ethics.
Other membership categories are non-voting, such as associate memberships. If someone is in the communications field, but is not as a practising journalist, that person can be a member and participate in the association.
