Membership is open to all.

Active members are those who paid their annual member dues; they may or may not be engaged in work of UAMA or its Chapters.

Active membership is continuous until the member leaves, resigns from the Association, or fails to pay membership dues. 

A.     The membership year for UAMA is from January 1 to December 31. A member joining may elect to be a continuing member. Membership shall then be continued from year to year until death, retirement, or the member cancels the election with a 30-day notice in writing. 

B.     UAMA has set a 60-day before the Annual Meeting cut-off date for membership renewals and new enrollment, effective with the 2016 year. Any renewals or new member enrollments received within 60-days of the Annual Meeting or after the Annual Meeting will be processed for the coming year; however, the person will be eligible for the Annual Meeting registration discounts afforded a member but will not have the privilege of voting and holding office in the Association until the year of his/her membership.
