Regular Membership
Article 3 of the Articles of Association stipulates that any reputable, accredited educational or training institute for professional personnel in the field of shipping on inland waterways which is registered and has its headquarters in a state of the European Union may join EDINNA. In special circumstances exceptions from those requirements are possible by a decision of the General Assembly.

Associated Membership
EDINNA is also open to an associate membership for institutions, companies or individuals which have no voting rights and cannot run for elective positions. The regulations for such an associated membership are laid down separately.
