Graduated Dues Program for Trainee Members
The AST recognizes the cost challenge of paying annual membership dues for a Trainee member transitioning to Full or International member status. In order to ease the transition, the AST offers a 3-year graduated dues program for Trainee members transitioning to Full member status, as a result of either completing their training or concluding eight years as a Trainee member.
The below chart details the rates and subscription benefits associated with the graduated dues program. Please contact the AST National Office with any questions or concerns anytime.
