One or more home organisations (such as, universities, research institutions or private companies) this user is affiliated with. The syntax and semantics follows eduPersonScopedAffiliation attribute.

Following values are recommended for use to the left of the “@” sign:

• Faculty

  The person is a researcher or teacher in their home organisation. 

  The exact interpretation is left to the home organization, but the intention is that the primary focus of the person in their home organisation is in research and/or education. 

  Note. This attribute value is for users in the academic sector
  
  
• Industry-researcher
  

  The person is a researcher or teacher in their home organisation. 

  The exact interpretation is left to the home organisation, but the intention is that the primary focus of the person in their home organisation is in research and/or education. 

  Note. This attribute value is for users in the private sector.
  
  
• Member
  

  Member is intended to include faculty, industry-researcher, staff, student and other persons with a full set of basic privileges that go with membership in the home organisation, as defined in eduPerson. 
  
  

  In contrast to faculty, among other things, this covers positions with managerial and service focus, such as service management or IT support.
  
  
• Affiliate
  
  The affiliate value indicates that the holder has some definable affiliation to the home organisation NOT captured by any of faculty, industry-researcher, staff, student and/or member.

If a person has faculty or industry-researcher affiliation with a certain organisation, they have also the member affiliation. However, that does not apply in a reverse order. Furthermore, those persons who do not qualify to member have an affiliation of affiliate.

urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.25178.4.1.11 (voPesonExternalAffiliation)

To become a holder of the faculty, industry-researcher or member attribute values in eduTEAMS the user must have either 

• Performed federated login to eduTEAMS using their home organisation’s credentials, during which the home organisation releases the related eduPersonAffiliation or eduPersonScopedAffiliation attribute, or 
• Be assigned that value manually in eduTEAMS by a dedicated person in their home organisation 

To become a holder of the affiliate value, the user must either 

• Use either of the two alternatives above, or
• Demonstrate they control an e-mail address that belongs to the home organisation

Multi-valued

The freshness of the attribute values is managed by asking users to refresh the value every 12 months using the procedure described above.

Affiliation within eduTEAMS
