DUES PAYMENT POLICY
Annual dues must be paid within six (6) months of the renewal date or before registering for any member-discounted events, such as the Medical Microbiology Review Course or the Annual Conference. If dues remain unpaid after the six-month period, the Member-in-Training status will be revoked, and the individual will no longer have access to membership benefits.
This policy ensures timely renewals and continued access to the resources and opportunities provided by AMMI Canada.
TRANSITION TO ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP
AMMI Canada recognizes the significant fee increase when Members-in-Training graduate from their programs and move to full Active Membership. To support a smoother transition, AMMI Canada has an incremental post-graduate dues increase schedule:
- 1st year post-graduation: Dues are $150.
- 2nd year post-graduation: Dues are $250.
- 3rd year post-graduation: Members move to full Active Membership and pay the standard dues for that fiscal year.
Members-in-Training are required to provide their expected graduation date upon application. On this date, their profile will be updated by the AMMI Canada Secretariat. When annual dues are generated for all members, the Member-in-Training will receive an updated invoice reflecting their post-graduate year and the corresponding dues as per the schedule above.
