Chapter Affiliation Program (CAP)

TSA offers three curriculum- integrated membership programs. Each chapter chooses the program that works best for them. Chapter advisors should mail their affiliation dues and invoice copy to National TSA, 1914 Association Drive, Reston, VA 20191.

Red CAP

A chapter affiliates up to ten members by paying a flat fee (additional members may be added during the year for a fee). The membership fee for Red CAP is $180 ($120 national dues and $60 state dues).

White cap

A chapter affiliates eleven or more members by paying a per member White CAP fee for state and national dues. The membership fee for White CAP is $18 per member ($12 national dues and $6 state dues).

blue cap

A chapter affiliates an unlimited number of members in a school for a flat fee (typically effective when there are more than 25 members). This option is popular in chapters where students rotate through a STEM class for a portion of the year to enable all students to be members. The membership fee for Blue CAP is $650 ($400 national dues and $250 state dues)
