What is the cost of SCOAR membership?

SCOAR offers four classes of membership, categorized by which part of the construction project a company represents, and each class of membership is assessed at its own rate of membership but all with shared membership benefits unparalleled by any other local users’ council. For more information, see our Membership page.

SCOAR is proud to be home to the most robust and diverse membership in its association category in the country. View our Member Directory for a complete listing.

For more information visit our Membership page. 

Is SCOAR membership available for individuals?

SCOAR offers a membership level for “Subscriber” members, including individuals, sole proprietors, or specialty consultants. This level of membership is reserved for one-person companies that have an interest in local engineering, construction, and maintenance improvement objectives.

How does my company apply for membership?

We’re excited you are interested in becoming a member of SCOAR! To apply, complete and submit our membership application. Once your application and payment have been received, our Board of Directors will vote on your application before full approval is granted, at which point, our executive team will reach out about your membership benefits.

Is membership open to companies outside SCOAR's 12-state footprint?

Yes, it is our policy that a company outside of the Southeast may be a member of SCOAR so long as said company does significant work within the Southeastern region.

How many meetings does SCOAR host annually?

SCOAR is proud to offer three multi-day conference-style meetings every year—a Winter, Spring, and Fall Meeting. The meeting sites circulate around the Southeast for greater exposure to all of our membership, and we feature engaging and relevant programming as well as plenty of networking opportunities.

Are SCOAR meetings open to non-members?

Non-member guests are welcome to attend a SCOAR meeting, and we welcome any companies interested in membership to attend and see what SCOAR is all about! Non-member guest attendance at meetings is limited to one meeting per company in accordance with our non-member attendance policy and fee schedule.

What can I expect at a SCOAR meeting?

Each meeting is a three-day, conference-style event, consisting of topic-specific committee meetings, owner and contractor roundtable discussions, general sessions featuring world-class speakers and presentations, best practice sharing from among the membership, and plenty of opportunities for networking.

What is the typical attendee makeup at SCOAR Meetings?

Our annual meetings typically draw between 150 and 200 total attendees, comprised of members and non-member guests representing prospective member companies. Like our membership, our meeting attendance consists of a diverse group of owners, large and small contractors, EPC’s, vendors and suppliers, as well as educational institutions and consultants. We often host meetings at family-friendly sites and members are always welcome to travel with families. Spouses and significant others are welcome to join us at our networking events for a nominal registration fee.

Are sponsorship opportunities available?

We welcome and encourage any member or non-member company who would like to sponsor SCOAR’s activities. As a 501(c)6 non-profit organization, sponsorships allow us to continue to scale the quality of our meetings for the benefit of our members.

Sponsorships are available for each meeting, with levels ranging from $750 to $5000. For 2026, we launched an Annual Partner Program, which allows a member company to support SCOAR and draw benefits for an entire calendar year. See [page] for more information.
