How to join.
Sign-up happens in our member portal (it runs on Member365, so you'll see that name on the sign-up pages and your receipt). It takes a few minutes.
- Start your application.
Open the Science to the Station membership application and enter your email address.
- Fill in your details.
You'll need your name, job title, organization, business address and a phone number. Have them handy before you start.
- Pick your workgroups and alliances.
The next page lists every workgroup and alliance at $25 a year each. Check as many as you like, or none to join as a member only. Groups marked Invite Only are for people who've been invited, and alliances marked Must Meet Requirements are for people who meet them. Add a short bio if you like, then agree to the Member Use Disclaimer.
- Review and pay.
A confirmation page lists your membership, each group you picked and your total. Add a promo code if you have one, then select Process Payment and pay by card (Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express). Your membership runs for a year, and you can log in to the member portal any time to see your groups and member resources.
Questions.
How much does it cost?
Science to the Station membership is $99 a year. Each workgroup or alliance you join is $25 a year on top of your membership.
Do I need to be a member to join a workgroup or alliance?
Yes. All workgroups and alliances require an active Science to the Station membership. You can sign up and add workgroups in one place in our member portal.
Can I join more than one workgroup?
Yes, as many as you like. Each one is $25 a year.
How much time does it take?
Most workgroups and alliances meet at least once a quarter. These are working groups, and how much more you take on is mostly up to you.
I'm not a firefighter or EMS provider. Can I still join?
Yes. Workgroups are open to members in fire or EMS service, academic research, or an industry role related to the workgroup's topic.
What's the difference between the Scholars Alliance and the Research Alliance?
The Scholars Alliance is for current or former fire and EMS professionals who also have, or are working on, an advanced degree. The Research Alliance is for full-time researchers whose work focuses on fire and EMS, whether or not they've worked in the field. Both have minimum requirements.
How do I join the Mental Health or Healthcare Alliance?
Those two alliances are by invitation only. Their workgroups, the Mental Health Workgroup and the Healthcare Workgroup, are open to all members.
I'm already a member. Where do I log in?
