Individual Membership

NTCA offers individual memberships for TB controllers and program managers and for others in the TB field who are interested in joining but who are not part of an NTCA organizational (or institutional) membership. The individual membership types, their annual dues, and their benefits are listed below.

Membership for TB Controllers: $180

The TB Controller/Program Manager, or a designated representative, of a TB program receiving cooperative agreement funding, may serve on the NTCA Board. All members in this category are eligible to vote in NTCA Board elections. These members may also choose to join the NTNC, NSTC, or SETC sections, vote in elections for section officers, and serve as section officers. There is no additional charge for joining a section.

All members in this category may participate in NTCA and section committees as committee chairpersons or members.

Individual Membership: $100

Individual memberships are available for individuals not included in institutional memberships and who are not TB Controllers/Program Managers.

Members in this category may also choose to join the NTNC, NSTC, or SETC sections at no additional charge, have the right to vote in elections for section officers, and may serve on the executive committees of the sections and on all NTCA committees and workgroups. The president of each section is a voting member of the NTCA Board. In addition, all members in this category may participate in NTCA and section committees as committee chairpersons or members.

Please note: Individuals who work in local health departments (city, county, district, or regional) in states or territories that purchased an institutional program membership for cooperative agreements are eligible to receive a $50 individual membership, a 50% discount off the price of an individual membership. Call the NTCA office at 678-503-0503 to see if you are eligible for this discount.
