CIC Membership Benefits

CIC offers a comprehensive array of benefits that are for CIC members only. Among them:

 

  1. Discounts on Registration Fees—Members receive discounts on registration fees for the Presidents Institute, Chief Academic Officers Institute, Department Chair Workshops, and other events.
  2. Foundation Conversation—An annual meeting in New York City between presidents and foundation officers is exclusively for CIC members.
  3. Workshops, Seminars, and Programs—CIC organizes workshops, seminars, and programs for member campus leaders and faculty aimed at exploring practical programming on today's vital educational topics. Some are open only to CIC members, some give preference to CIC members.
  4. Data and Assessment Services—CIC provides members with comprehensive Key Indicators Tool and Financial Indicators Tool reports that offer valuable benchmarking data on their institutional performance. CIC also offers workshops and meetings on data and assessment.
  5. Tuition Exchange Program—CIC members are eligible for this faculty/staff benefit that provides tuition-free admission for family members of full-time employees at CIC institutions.
  6. National Projects and a National Voice—Through CIC projects, members tap into a wealth of ideas for constructive change across the nation. Additionally, CIC speaks out on issues, conducts national public information programs, and connects presidents with key players in the national media.
  7. News and Publications—Members receive timely reports and emails on critical issues, and receive the Independent, a regular newsletter and resource of ideas and useful information.
  8. Listservs—Electronic discussion forums for presidents, chief academic officers, and other campus officials allow ongoing communication among CIC member colleagues.

Membership in CIC also links you into these benefits:

  1. Network of College Leaders—You will find in CIC an active group of friends, colleagues, and consultants who can help you develop new programs, solve problems, and become a better leader.
  2. Practical Ideas for Improvement—Through projects, conferences, and publications, CIC offers you and your campus assistance, solutions, and inspiration.
  3. Services Tailored to Your Institution—CIC serves only one constituency—small and mid-sized private liberal arts colleges and universities—and tailors all services to the needs of these institutions.
  4. Shared Commitments—CIC members share strong beliefs about the importance and value of private higher education, and are committed to working together for the common good of the sector.
