Membership Details & Eligibility

Membership types

Company Membership is open to companies who have built or are currently constructing a commercial or multi-family mass timber or innovative light-frame project(s). A company membership gives you access to two employee profiles and unlimited admin accounts. This means that you can create profiles for two of your employees and invite an unlimited number of admins to help you manage your WIN company page. Admins do not count against the two individual profiles included in your company account. WIN admins cannot edit employee/individual profiles, only the company profile.

Company profile pages include:

• A company logo & custom banner photo
• Company bio
• Video
• Link to your company website
• Your innovative wood projects
• Services offered
• Two employees (2 employees are included in a company account. You can purchase more.)
• Contact button to receive emails via WIN
• Stats on how many views your company receives, how many website clicks and how many times people like and save your projects

Individual Membership is open to people who have built or are currently constructing a commercial or multi-family mass timber or innovative light-frame project(s). You may be self-employed or working for a company that will not pay for your WIN membership. If you were part of a company and left, your membership will transition to an individual membership once your company removes you from their company membership. You will have 30 days to access your WIN dashboard and activate your individual membership.

Individual profile pages include the ability to add:

• A personal photo (no logos allowed)
• A personal bio including education & experience
• Contact button to receive emails via WIN
• Your innovative wood projects
• Stats on how many people view your profile and your projects, plus how many people like and save them

Community Membership is open to anyone who wants to stay informed on the happenings in the wood industry and has attended at least 5 WoodWorks education courses (online or in-person). Community members can access the forum, be listed and contacted in the directory and are invited to networking events, WoodWorks education, building tours and more.
