Membership Application
To apply for membership in the Northwest Editors Guild, please submit the form below, along with your résumé or a link to your LinkedIn page.
Your application materials should demonstrate at least a year of experience as an editor (freelance/independent, in house, or both). Completion of the University of Washington editing certificate program (or a similar accredited program) satisfies this requirement. Membership is open to anyone in the United States, but most services and events are focused on the Pacific Northwest.
You will be notified of your status by e-mail within two weeks.
If you're accepted as an Editors Guild member, we will invoice you online for your first annual dues payment of $70. You will automatically be prompted to renew your membership in the following years. Your membership will become effective after approval of your application and receipt of your dues.
NOTE: If you are a former member of the Guild or if your account has expired and you can no longer access our website’s payment system to renew, please do not send a new application, but rather contact our admin directly at info@edsguild.org with the subject line “Membership renewal.”
