Q1. How do I become an AWMA member?
A1. The best way to join AWMA is through your local State/Territory Association. This will give you membership benefits for both your State/Territory as well as membership to AWMA (inclusive of AWMA membership benefits). Subtly each state has different processes regarding membership as well as different fee structures. Information as well as relevant membership forms can be found for each State/Territory on the AWMA Website which can be found here (once at this page select the link to the State/Territory of your choice).
Alternatively you may also choose to be a direct member of AWMA. To do this you will need to download the Direct AWMA membership application form from the website here.
• NB: Direct AWMA Membership will not provide you with State Membership benefits.
Further information regarding membership can be obtained from the:
• AWMA Membership Secretary E mail membership@awma.com.au
• Or by contacting your local State Association. Details are listed on the State Pages here (link to state page) (once at this page select the link to the State of your choice).

Q4. I have not received my Journal and/or other information.
A4. AWMA advises all new members that it can take up to 12 weeks before you receive your first Journal. This is due to the fact that the Journal is published quarterly; therefore depending on when your membership was received and then processed you may have missed a mail out deadline.
