As an individual member, how do I renew?

To renew your membership, simply log into your AMA account, navigate to the membership section, select the “Renew” button and follow the renewal prompts provided.

Is membership based on a calendar year?

AMA membership is for 12 months and starts once it is paid for. If you are part of a group membership, your membership is activated once you use the provided group membership code.

How does group membership work?

Once the payment has been processed, you are sent a receipt and a unique group code. The directions are to pass the code out to everyone in the group so they can individually create or renew their membership. Please click here for an example of the process each group member will complete. 

I am part of a group membership. How do I renew, add members, view my group or check when my group membership expires?
