Membership Application
Member Eligibility
We invite applications for membership from organisations and individuals that have
accountabilities for nuclear security and who wish to contribute to the goals of
WINS – to share and promote the implementation of best security practices.
Effective security for nuclear and radioactive materials often relies on different
organisations working together in partnership with clear definitions of accountability
and good communications. For those reasons WINS is inclusive and recognises the
importance of having members with different accountabilities and experience. Membership
is open to policy makers, regulators, responders, facility operators and related
occupations in central government, government organisations, research establishments
and private companies. Organisations and individuals with direct responsability
for nuclear and radioactive materials are encouraged to apply.
Successful applications will be notified as soon as possible.
Applications on behalf of organisations should identify the names of those persons
wishing to be considered members, together with their job titles.
All Members will be expected to uphold the
WINS Members' Code of Conduct and Confidentiality.
Membership Fees
Joining WINS is free at the moment and if you don't find it beneficial, you can
cancel your membership at any time. We plan to waive Membership Fees until 2011
but members are expected and encouraged to contribute to the goals of WINS by sharing
best security practices, based on their experiences and specialities. WINS welcomes
proposals from members to hold workshops or other events to help achieve this objective.
Applications
Applications should be submitted by completing the online Application Form and submitting it. Alternatively, Application Forms can be
downloaded and returned to the
World Institute for Nuclear Security, Graben 19, A-1010 Vienna, Austria, marked
for the attention of the Office Manager.
