Learn More about AMA Membership on Marketing Power
AMA membership is on an individual basis and not transferable between individuals. Membership is carried in the person's name, not the employer, even when paid for by the employer. There are several membership types depending on where you are in your career.
Professional Membership - This membership is open to any person engaged in or having an interest in marketing. Professional members join local professional chapters and must pay local professional chapter dues.
Collegiate Membership - This membership is open to any full- or part-time student who is attending a regionally or nationally accredited academic institution of higher learning, working toward a degree, and is not concurrently employed in a full-time professional position. Doctoral students are also considered collegiate members. Collegiate members pay a discounted local chapter dues in addition to national dues.
Young Professional Membership - This membership is a three year transitional program for current graduating AMA student members. Professional chapter dues are optional for the first year, but mandatory for the second and third years. However, to participate as a volunteer in a local chapter during the first year, chapter dues do apply.
Academic Membership - This membership is open to any person holding a full-time faculty status in an institution of higher learning with an interest in the science and practice of marketing. Academic members must pay local chapter dues, but instead of joining the chapter, they may elect to allocate that portion of dues to the Academic Division.
