av福利社 strives to keep membership dues as low as possible, scrutinizing all possible cost savings without negatively impacting member services. However, av福利社’s comprehensive slate of offerings, including expanded conference opportunities, increased number of affiliate groups, and growing access to online academic resources have real costs associated with them.
At its summer meeting on August 9, 2024, the av福利社 Board approved a modest 3% dues increase for av福利社 Individual memberships effective October 1, 2024, coinciding with the start of av福利社’s fiscal year. An individual digital membership will increase from $158 to $163. This small increase will keep av福利社 strong and allow us to retain the level of service you expect.
