  • I am joining the SSC in the middle of the year for the first time. Is the membership valid for a full year?
    • SSC membership runs from January until December of the calendar year. Any membership paid by October 31st will be effective until December 31st of the current year.
  • I forgot the email address I used to create my account or its password.
    • If you forgot the email address linked to your account or it is unrecognized, please email the office (es-admin@ssc.ca) with your full name to request this information. Please do not create a new account.
    • If you forgot your password, once you are on the Log in page, click on Reset your password at the top right of the page. You will need your username or the email address affiliated with your account.
  • I got a renewal notice by email, but I already paid this year.
    • If you think that you have paid for this year, please contact es-admin@ssc.ca to clarify the situation.
  • My contact information has changed. What should I do?
    • Please log in to your account on ssc.ca (you will be on My SSC). Select Update your profile in the menu to proceed with the changes.
  • Can I split my membership fees into several payments?
    • Unfortunately, members can only pay their dues in one installment.
  • When is the renewal period?
    • Current members get a first email with an invitation to renew their membership at the end of the year (November-December). Regular members who renew following this invitation and before December 31st receive a discount.
    • Discount rates for the annual meeting and other conferences that take place in a given calendar year only apply to people who have paid their dues for that same calendar year.
  • I don’t see my renewal for accreditation. When is it processed?
    • If you are an accredited member, you will receive your accreditation renewal along with your membership renewal as they are processed at the same time. Fees for both renewals are due at the same time.
  • I am an accredited member. How can I pay my accreditation dues?
    • If you are already accredited, you must renew your Accreditation at the same time as your Membership. It is not possible to renew the Accreditation and Membership separately.
  • I want to join a section or a regional association, but I already paid my membership dues. How can I proceed?
    • If you have already renewed your membership and you want to join a section that you are not yet a member of, please contact es-admin@ssc.ca. If you want to join a regional association, you are invited to contact them directly.
  • I was a member in the last calendar year but did not pay my dues for the current calendar year before July 1st. What happens?
    • As of July 1st of the current calendar year, your membership is now expired. You can reactivate it by paying the dues for the current year.
  • I have not paid my accreditation dues for the current calendar year, and it is now November. What happens?
    • If accreditation dues are not paid by October 31st, accreditation is suspended, and you are no longer allowed to use the A.Stat. or P.Stat. designation. Should you wish to be reinstated, you will have to appeal to the Accreditation Appeals Committee. Please consult Appendix H of the Accreditation documentation.
  • I used to be a member of the SSC a while ago, but I let my membership lapse. I want to join the Society again: what should I do?
    • Please use your former credentials from your SSC account to rejoin; if you do not remember your account details, please proceed to create one or write to es-admin@ssc.ca.
  • I would like to benefit from the reduced rate for residents of designated countries: am I eligible?
  • I would like to benefit from the reduced rate for students: am I eligible?
    • This membership category is available only to full-time students, as defined by your home institution.
  • I would like to benefit from the recent graduate rate: am I eligible?
    • Individuals receiving their university degree in a given calendar year can be associate members (recent graduates) for the next two calendar years only. For example, if you receive your degree in November 2026, you can claim the recent graduate rate for each of the following membership years: 2027 and 2028.
