FCIAA/IACA DUAL MEMBERSHIP YEAR
In April 2016, FCIAA and IACA entered into an agreement to provide a membership to both associations for a reduced annual rate of $40. For a full year of membership (April 20-April 19) IACA bills us $15 per person. In 2017, after we went through our first full year of this partnership the Board decided to make a change to ensure that we are being fiscally responsible with the funds coming in. The main reason for this change was not knowing who was or wasn't going to renew their memberships. Yet, FCIAA was still responsible to pay their IACA membership fee. As an example, in April FCIAA paid $15 to IACA for Sally Notreal's membership; however in July, when Sally Notreal's FCIAA/IACA membership is up for renewal, she doesn't renew. The Board does not believe this is good stewardship of the monies we collect from our members.
As of January 1st, 2018 all dual memberships will have a membership year of April 1 - March 31. We will take new dual members throughout the year with the understanding that we do not be prorate the membership fees. We also continue to offer our FCIAA-only membership of $25 annually.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CREATE YOUR OWN IACA ACCOUNT. ONCE YOU SIGN-UP FOR A DUAL MEMBERSHIP, IACA WILL CONTACT YOU WITH PROFILE SETUP INSTRUCTIONS.
A Vision Founded in 1995
All memberships in the Association are effective upon the timely payment of dues (if applicable). Active members are defined as those members who have paid member dues in full as outlined in Article II, Section 4 of the by-laws. Membership shall begin at such time as the Vice President of Membership has processed membership dues and has notified the applicant that they are an active member.
Membership will extend for a period of (1) year from the date of notification. Membership renewal for the coming year shall be processed prior to the termination of the previous year(s) membership period. Any active member who has not paid their dues within (30) days of their membership expiration date shall be suspended from all membership rights.
The FCIAA board, at their discretion, may revoke any membership status at any time by a simple majority vote, including a Life Member. This can be due to a criminal offense or act of moral turpitude, or any verifiable incident, issue or action that undermines or is a detriment to the association. Cases of reinstatement may be considered on an individual basis.
Who Should Join?
We collaborate with any sworn or civilian personnel working in the government or private sectors, within Florida, whose primary responsibilities are analyzing crime or intelligence information. College students and educators who can show an interest in the field and retired law enforcement analysts are able to join at an associate level.
In addition, corporations who service government or non-government entities that employ analysts or provides products customarily used by analysts are also able to join FCIAA on a corporate level. Additional membership information can be found in our Bylaws sections.
Membership Benefits
As an analyst member, your annual dues are $40 a year, which also includes:
- An annual membership with the International Association of Crime Analysts (IACA).
- Discounts on quarterly training seminars and our annual conference
- Opportunities for free training are available to analysts who host these quarterly training classes and other classes, such as the IACA Professional Training Series
FCIAA is currently working on bringing web-based trainings and tutorials to our members and are always looking for host sites to provide these trainings throughout Florida. There are additional benefits to members who decide to join one of the several committees we partner with.
