The membership year starts October 1st of each year.
The membership drive continues through July 31st of each year.
There are two types of membership: (1) Active Member and (2) Retired Member. See below for a summary of each membership type, but visit the membership type’s page for more information.
Active Members renew their NGAUS and NGAAL memberships annually.
Digital Life Members pay $500 for a NGAUS digital life membership (payments can be broken up). You receive all the benefits of a life member, but you do not get the metal life membership card, and your NGAUS subscriptions are delivered digitally. You still must pay your NGAAL dues each year. This is the best deal available and for CGOs and mid-rank officers will pay for itself over time!
Retired Members renew their NGAUS and NGAAL memberships annually (a retired NGAUS life membership is available).
