Important tips to remember during CSC membership purchases
  • If you plan to purchase an All-In group membership, be sure you are the account custodian of the institution or conference office account beforehand. Only custodians have the ability to purchase a membership and edit staff on behalf of an organization. If you do not know your account custodian, contact beau@cscommunicators.com.
  • If you are a custodian trying to add a new staff member and the system indicates that person has a duplicate account, DON NOT CREATE DUPLICATE ACCOUNTS. Contact beau@cscommunicators.com to have their affiliation transferred from a previous employer.
  • If you are an individual with a recent membership and who has moved to a new employer, contact beau@cscommunicators.com to have your affiliation transferred. DO NOT CREATE A DUPLICATE PROFILE. If you have multiple profiles in the system, contact beau@cscommunicators.com to have them merged into one historical record.
  • If you are a custodian, you are encouraged to update your staff in the system prior to the start of the academic year and as needed throughout the year to ensure all members receive regular communications from CSC regarding member benefits, upcoming events, Academic All-America deadlines and other important information.
  • During your CSC membership purchase, optional memberships may also be purchased for 2ySIDA ($25), NAIA-SIDA ($50) and EAST-COMM ($75) by selecting the desired checkboxes. CSC will deliver these optional membership funds to the corresponding organizations. These memberships are completely separate from CSC membership and questions about them should be directed to those organizations.
