While ASEM Headquarters has consistently kept a careful watch on expenditures, the economy has been changing significantly for the last two years and particularly over the last six months. This dues increase is the first in over 5 years and is necessary to keep ASEM operations moving forward. We will continue to monitor and control expenditures as part of our sound business practices. There is opportunity for you. ASEM Members are encouraged to take advantage of current dues rates between now and July 1. Additionally, for those who prefer to renew with your hIAC Registration, we will accept your registration and dues payment at the current rates through 2023 hIAC Early Bird Registration only. Please contact ASEM Headquarters when you register and renew for the adjustment. Again, this extension is only available for members who renew and register. No refund of registration will be permitted if you wish to take advantage of the reduced rate. Renew now and consider a multi-year renewal. It will save you money.
ASEM seeks knowledge volunteers as part of a team chartered to investigate validation or accreditation of ASEM’s growing portfolio of certifications. The use of a third-party standard, has long been discussed. Organizations such as ABET use international standards such as ISO 9000. The Institute for Credentialing Excellence (ICE) and the IACET (International Accreditors for Continuing Education and Training) are two examples of U.S. organizations that accredit personnel and continuing education related certifications or certificates. The major deliverable for the Accreditation Project is a actionable plan for obtaining recognized and effectual accreditation as our certification/badging products grow. If you have applicable accreditation knowledge or experience and would like to contribute to this please contact the ASEM Executive Director (ExecutiveDirector@asem.org). | Please visit our sponsors: |
