AFTA Application Information

A Message from the AFTA Membership Chair:

Below you will find the application and recommendation web and print forms for membership in AFTA. Please carefully review the Membership Criteria and select your references accordingly. It will be your responsibility to contact the people you wish to serve as your references and provide them with the enclosed recommendation print or web forms. People providing references should return them directly to AFTA's Central Office.

Occasionally, in the face of extraordinary contributions, AFTA waives some of the usual requirements. If you feel you should be considered for such a review, please make a note to that effect on your application form.

NOTE: The application question about minority group status is asked to ensure the inclusion of underrepresented minorities.
