Membership
Membership is open to those Extension personnel (including Administration, University and County based Professionals) and retirees who exhibit excellence in Extension programming. Membership is established through state chapters that are chartered through the national organization. With members from all aspects of the Extension system, members have an opportunity to network with members from all of Extension regardless of subject area or position.
Membership to Epsilon Sigma Phi is by invitation only. State chapters nominate outstanding Extension professionals for membership. Individuals nominated should complete the new member application below.
After completing the New Member Application you will have an opportunity to pay your membership dues online or download an invoice to send with a payment to the national office.
Individuals from chapters in Oregon, Utah, Ohio, and Colorado should not pay online. If you are from one of these four states, just download your invoice and forward it to your chapter membership chair for payment.
If you do not have a chapter in your state, please contact the national office about joining as a member at large.
New membership dues are $55 for national dues plus local chapter dues.
