Membership Costs
What it costs to register as a School Member
The membership fee structure continues to reflect fairness to schools of differing student enrollments but also helps to innovate new leadership programming and to offer even more inclusive leadership year-long ‘conversations’… from seminars to online sessions, all at no additional cost. If that isn’t compelling enough, members will receive a discounted rate for participating in the Annual AAIE Global Leadership Conversation.
