WHEN DOES MY MEMBERSHIP EXPIRE?
You can verify your annual membership period by logging in to your User Account and viewing your membership information.
AER provides our members with a grace period of two months. For example, if your membership expires in January, your active membership will not be dropped until March. However, we encourage you to renew early to avoid any loss of member benefits.
