ABMA Collaborative First Time Membership is a program that offers ten (10) free memberships annually. This program is intended to help individuals who are less familiar with the organization become members for the first time to get a taste of what the ABMA is all about. The new member will have access to all the benefits of an Active membership and will be asked to actively support the ABMA by auditing a committee of their choice.
Applications for the program will be accepted twice a year (November-April and May-October) and five (5) individuals will be chosen each round by the ABMA Board of Directors based on their submissions. If you are chosen, the ABMA will manually create your account and you will be notified of your login credentials. This is good for a one (1) year ABMA active membership.
