Membership of WYSE Travel Confederation is open to organisations engaged in providing youth and student travel products and services.
Annual membership fees start from EUR 400 per year and vary according to the size of your organisation.
If you are involved in providing products and services to the youth and student travel industry, there is a Confederation membership category to fit your organisation.
The following is the new membership model and associated fees for 2017.
The membership fee will stay the same for all current members who joined before 2013.
If you are not sure which WYSE Travel Confederation membership category your organisation belongs to, please view the description below, from the WYSE Travel Confederation Constitution.
Full Members
Those specialising in youth travel, student travel and/or international education services may apply to become Full Members. Each Full Member shall have the right to vote at the Annual General Meeting of the WYSE Travel Confederation and in the election of Full Members to the Executive Board. Proxy votes are permitted.
NTB/OTO Members
The following types of organisations may apply to become NTA, OTO, and NGO members:
NTA Members (National Tourism Administrator): i.e. governmental authority responsible for the development of tourism in a specific country.
OTO Members (Official Tourism Organisation): i.e. organisations with official sanction to operate on behalf of government authority (NTA) at any level i.e. local, regional or national.
NGO Members (Non-Governmental Organisation): Organisations which exist primarily for non-trading purposes and whose activities relate to representation, advocacy, charity, or other public service, not-for-profit, objectives.
NTA, OTO and NGO Members are non-voting members.
Service Members
Commercial organisations that are not specialists in the field of international education, youth and student travel, but are active in providing ancillary student and youth travel and/or international education products or services. This category could include insurance companies, airlines and other pertinent suppliers to our industry. These organisations may apply to be admitted as Syndicate Members. Syndicate Members are non-voting partners.
