CPA membership is company-based. This means if your company joins the CPA, all individuals within the company are automatically members and can take advantage of our many benefits! Membership Dues are pro-rated throughout the year and are collected on an Annual basis. Renewals are collected within the 4th Quarter of every year.

Regular Membership Dues pricing is based on your company’s annual revenue in the Contract Packaging sector specifically:
