FAQ

All membership levels receive the same benefits. Fees in the Silver, Gold, or Platinum categories have an additional advantage in that 10% of their value is credited to the World Council Scholarship Fund which supports bringing those who could otherwise not afford it to the World Conference. You can also donate a set amount to the scholarship fund. For more information visit world-gifted.org/give.

Students who are enrolled full-time in a program related to gifted education and who are not employed full-time can apply for a reduced membership of $50 per year. A graduate supervisor must approve the application. You can apply by clicking here.
