Associate and Affiliate Questions
Enhanced profile pages within The Community for current Associate and Affiliate members can be obtained in one of two ways:

Become a PHCCWA Partner: PHCCWA Partners enjoy enhanced company profile pages and each level of partnerships offers extended benefits within The Community. Current members who wish to upgrade to a Partnership Package should contact the association.

Purchase a Basic Plus Enhanced Profile Subscription: The Basic Plus profile is an enhanced business listing available to Associate and Affiliate members in The Community. It’s perfect for companies that want more visibility but aren't Partners.

Upgrading to Basic Plus gives your business an enhanced profile that includes:

  • A professional, branded company page
  • Highlighted placement after Partners in the Partners member directory
  • A custom Call-to-Action button to encourage member engagement
  • Basic visibility metrics, like page visits and clicks

The Basic Plus profile includes select enhanced features, but does not offer the full range of benefits available to Partners.

Persons must have an account in the PHCCWA website before they are available to add from the + button in The Community on your company's profile page. You may have permissions to add them via your Member Compass People section. You can add them directly in The Community, but they may not be able to access other member areas so this method is NOT recommended.

If you do not have a level of permission to add them on the PHCCWA website, they are welcome to register themselves for an account on the PHCCWA website and at the next sync their information will be pushed to The Community.
