Member Information and Consultation Program (MICP)
The most comprehensive of officiating-related information. MICP has two parts: A free information program handled by the NASO-ON staff and a consultation program through which NASO-ON
can put a member association in contact with an outside professional for an initial free consultation.  The need for such outside consultation is determined solely by NASO-ON. Member associations can use the MICP benefit up to 3 times per year to sort out an officiating-related issue, clarify options or get advice.

They can then sell the publications for the list price and retain the profits for the association or they can distribute them as part of their membership benefits (often covered by member dues).
