Enterprise membership
Three contribution levels, scaled to organization size.
Enterprise membership has three contribution levels. Platinum and Gold underwrite foundation-wide infrastructure, public research, and the open curriculum. Silver is the standard level and scales by employee count. No contribution level confers a reserved Board seat, voting weight, or non-public access to draft standards.

Silver — contribution by employee count
Silver contribution scales with organization size.
Employee count is the total worldwide headcount of the member organization, including contractors, as of the membership renewal date. Members re-band each year at renewal; mid-year changes do not adjust contribution until renewal. The foundation provides a written disclosure of the fair market value of benefits received so members can determine the deductible portion of their contribution.
| Employee count | Annual contribution |
|---|---|
| Under 100 employees | $5,000 / year |
| 100 – 499 employees | $10,000 / year |
| 500 – 4,999 employees | $15,000 / year |
| 5,000 or more employees | $20,000 / year |
