Becoming an Affiliate Member is easy. We’ve broken the application process down into three quick steps, which can be completed online, in person, or over the phone. Once you join, you will be contacted by a PDC 30 Representative to complete a brief questionnaire about your work experience. Your membership lasts two full years and comes with a variety of benefits – all for a one-time payment of $36.

Check out the Union Plus benefit highlights, below.
If an opportunity opens up to for you to work for a union employer, you’ll pay a reduced application fee in upgrading your membership to the full Union membership level.
