Equitable Pricing

The IAABC is a global organization, and we know that the cost of membership means different things in different parts of the world. Our Equitable Pricing Program ensures that membership remains accessible to professionals everywhere by adjusting fees based not only on each country’s economy, but also on the state of the animal behavior industry and the typical earning potential for behavior professionals in that region. This approach helps us offer fair, regionally adjusted rates while maintaining the same high-quality benefits, education, and community access for all members. Our goal is to reduce financial barriers so that passionate and qualified behavior professionals, no matter where they live, can connect, learn, and grow with us.
