Proposed Bylaw Amendment: Individual Affiliate Membership
AACTE is proposing a bylaw amendment to establish a new Individual Affiliate Membership category. This membership would provide a pathway for retired professionals, member-institution alumni, and others committed to educator preparation to stay connected to AACTE when they no longer qualify through a member institution.
Individual Affiliate Members would receive member rates, resources, and access to members-only activities, but not voting rights or board eligibility. Institutional membership is unaffected.
Voting opens November 9 and closes November 20. Chief Representatives will receive a link to vote via email.

AACTE is governed by a Board of Directors composed of both elected and appointed members, as stipulated in the Association’s bylaws.
AACTE members voted for proposed bylaw changes to the AACTE Board composition in November 2024. To learn more, read Changes to AACTE Board of Directors Composition and Nomination Process.
