Membership Information
CAM usually has members in over 38 nations with about 30-35 from the Commonwealth and welcomes participation from all 53 member states. Membership is open to institutions, associations and individuals from the Commonwealth and Associate members from outside the Commonwealth. CAM activities and events are open to non-members from any part of the world at non-member rates.
Is CAM for You?
- Do you enjoy sharing ideas with museum people who have a different background from your own and from different countries?
- Do you like theme programs rather than simply darting in and out of large conferences?
- Do you like to get to know your colleagues better and form a more sustainable network and community from around the world?
- Are you interested in life-long learning?
- Are you interested in CAM themes and activities as described elsewhere?
If you answer yes to several of these questions CAM could be the kind of organization that will be rewarding and productive for you. It looks both at the larger picture and at specific areas of professional development and training but tries to bring in perspectives which enrich our usual professional viewpoints and our lives.
