CMAA National Dues Rates
CMAA memberships are dual and simultaneous, meaning you must maintain both National and Chapter dues to keep your membership active (except for Retired and Student member classifications). If you're unsure of your Chapter's rates, please contact your local Chapter. For any questions, reach out to CMAA's Membership Department.
NOTE: 96 percent of all clubs pay their managers’ annual dues for CMAA membership.

Effective September 1, 2024:

This dues benefit applies exclusively to new and rejoining members. Reinstating members are not eligible for these rates. A reinstatement occurs when a dropped member pays their outstanding dues within the same membership year. If a full membership year has passed, former members must rejoin CMAA.
| Alumnus Members: 1st year | $445 |
| Alumnus Members: 2nd year | Half of Prevailing Professional Dues Rate |
Professional and Alumnus Members joining CMAA between April 1 and August 31 will pay half of the first-year dues rate (Professional-$250; Alumnus-$222.50), and their membership will be valid through October 31 of the same year.
Current or former CMAA Student members who have graduated and now hold a management position at a club need to transition to an Alumnus membership. Alumnus members have the same access and benefits as Professional members but receive an additional benefit of discounted National dues for their first two years. In the third year, they will be automatically transferred to the Professional member type and billed the prevailing dues rate on their National renewal invoice.
