Why Join the IAPG?

You may join the Interagency Advanced Power Group under any of 3 levels of membership if you meet the following qualifications:

1. Federal Sponsoring Agency Members

   Employees of the following federal agencies may join the IAPG:
   • U. S. Army
   • U. S. Navy
   • National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)
   • Department of Energy (DOE)
   • U. S. Air Force
   As an employee of an IAPG Federal Sponsoring Agency, members are eligible to hold an office within the IAPG organizational structure. Periodic meetings are sponsored to share technological advancements, to exchange program information, and to network. Employees of IAPG member agencies are invited to attend these meetings, however, formal invitations are sent to members of the Working Groups. Members’ names will be shown on the membership roster on the IAPG web site.

2. Associate Federal Members

   Two groups are included in Level 2:
   1. Employees of Non-IAPG Sponsoring Federal Organizations have full access to IAPG information and names may be shown on the membership roster on the IAPG web site. This group of members does not have a vote on the Steering Group.
   2. Employees of Federal National Labs, Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDC’s), and Government-Owned, Contractor-Operated Facilities (GOCO’s) may join the IAPG. This group has access to information shared at IAPG meetings except where there is discussion about issues/funding which may provide a competitive advantage. Membership applications are reviewed by appropriate Steering Group Representative/ Alternate for approval; approved member names will be shown on membership roster on the IAPG web site. This group of members may not hold IAPG leadership positions.

3. Observers

   Individuals employed by Government contract and whose work is performed on-site at a Government facility and employees of research and development technology-related industries and institutions including colleges and universities may join the IAPG as Observers.
