When it comes to holding office in a division, your membership status and membership category matter.

If your division has recently held elections, or if it’s been a while since you last reviewed your records, this is a great opportunity to ensure all officers have current, active memberships. 

Your division bylaws define membership requirements and eligibility to vote for each category. Always refer to your bylaws and check the membership status of those who will be or are already serving in a leadership role.  Division leaders (president, past president, president-elect, secretary, treasurer, executive director/administrative officer, membership chair, and listserv manager) can check the membership status of their officers through the Division Leadership Portal.  

  1. Go to the Division Leadership Portalopens in new window.
  2. Select the “Roster Detail”.
  3. Select the membership year you are looking for from the filter options.
  4. Set the “Status” filter to “Current Membership”.
  5. Search using the “Name” filter or export the list.

If you have questions, please contact your Division Engagement liaison.
