PAACE has established a new membership year.

To make the membership process more efficient and to coincide with the PAACE Conference registration, the membership year has been changed. All memberships will now begin on December 1 and end on November 30 of the next year.

The current memberships will be affected as follows:

  • Memberships that expire September 1, 2008 - February 1, 2009 will now have an expiration date of November 30, 2008.
  • Memberships that expire on March 1, 2009, or later will have an expiration date of November 30, 2009.

Some members will gain a few months and some will lose a few months but it will make for a better system overall. No longer will members have to wonder whether they missed the membership email reminder or have to search for their membership cards to see when they should renew.
