Membership Categories and Fees

MAJ Membership

There are two categories of MAJ membership:

1. Individual Membership
   Individual Membership is for teachers, researchers, and administrators using Moodle in their educational profession. The annual fee is 10,000 yen. This includes free participation in the annual conference.
2. Institutional Membership
   Institutional Membership is for academic, government, and corporate organizations who are using Moodle and have multiple staff attending the conference. This allows free attendance of seven staff members to the Annual Conference and Training Workshops (MoodleMoot Japan). This contribution promotes an interchange of ideas on Moodle in Japan and gives your institution a voice on the Board of Moodle Association of Japan to fund Moodle code improvements. The annual fee is 50,000 yen. As MAJ is not a commercial organization, the members of the board of directors shall be made up of individual users, academic researchers and representatives of user-organizations who are institutional members of MAJ.
3. Associate Membership
   The MAJ Associate Membership system has been abolished. Please refer instead to the MAJ Sponsor system.
