CorporateThe corporate category is open to all companies involved in educational publishing. Since AEP membership is organizational, all employees of member companies are eligible to attend events at the member rate and receive AEP Online. AEP aims to help corporate members achieve greater sales and profitability. While marketing is an essential component, in reality it is understanding the full scope of the educational marketplace from many angles that truly provides the blueprint for making successful management decisions. In terms of organizational structure within AEP, each corporate member is entitled to one vote.
Non-Profit/SchoolThe non-profit category is open to all non-profit organizations that directly publish educational materials or have an interest in supporting the continued importance of quality educational products. Membership is organizational, so all employees of member companies receive member benefits. Non-profit organizations are especially interested in trends and new approaches for learning opportunities, and often form much of the backbone for advocacy on behalf of the educational publishing community. In terms of organizational structure within AEP, each non-profit member is entitled to one vote.
Independent/Freelance*Open to individuals and freelance professionals involved in educational publishing and reporting. Membership is individual and the member may attend all events at the member rate. Independent and freelancers receive extensive opportunities to interact with all AEP members, an ideal audience for pursuing writing opportunities. Access to the proprietary AEP Online Directory alone is invaluable, but combining this with the opportunity to join with AEP members at many events makes this an investment that's bound to pay off. In terms of organizational structure within AEP, independent/freelance is a non-voting member. *The Independent/Freelance category is limited to individuals not representing a company or organization. As a member in this category, a member's company will not be listed in AEP materials.
Affiliate/Service ProvidersOpen to all companies and consultants who serve the educational publishing community. Membership is organizational so all employees of member companies are eligible to receive member benefits. Affiliate members get opportunities to rub shoulders with AEP members in environments that are ideal for business opportunities. Why struggle making cold calls for appointments when you can meet key individuals in person at a variety of industry events? In terms of organizational structure within AEP, Affiliate members are non-voting members.
StudentOpen to full-time, enrolled college and university students interested in a future in educational publishing or related fields. Membership as a student is individual, and attendance at events is at the member rate. AEP membership for students is an excellent investment as it exposes individuals to the world they are going to enter after graduation. In fact, smart students know that networking while in school can often result in having a job lined up before graduation. In terms of organizational structure within AEP, student members are non-voting members.
