Program Description
- Who? All NCTM Partner Affiliates “In Good Standing” are invited to participate.
- What? The program is designed to highlight the participation of Partner Affiliate leaders and members in the Council’s activities.

Criteria for Recognition
To be eligible for recognition in the NCTM Affiliate Leadership Circle, a Partner Affiliate must submit its membership list to the NCTM Headquarters Office (see How? above), where the percent of NCTM members will be determined (i.e., identified and verified).* An Affiliate can qualify for one of three recognition levels based on the percent of its members who are also current members of NCTM. The levels and the minimum percentage of NCTM membership for each recognition level are as follows: SILVER (35%), GOLD (50%), and PLATINUM (65%).
