At the 2018 IMPACT Conference, ALM members selected three well-qualified leaders for service on the Board. Three seats were on the ballot: president-elect and two director positions.

Did you know that while ALM has different membership types, there are also different account types? If you have a group account (facility, corporate, or national/regional associates), there is a Company Account with a username and password for membership dues billing and renewal, as well as Personal Accounts (with a username and password) for all individuals who are part of the membership.

All ALM members, regardless of membership type, have a Personal Account, and that's likely what you use regularly. It's through the Personal Account that you track your contact hours, register for an ALM program, and update your email address. Your Personal Account is yours and stays with you if you change employers. But don't be confused when it comes to renewal time if you have a group account. You will need to log into your Company Account to find the renewal invoice and update who has allowed access on your membership.

Need assistance? Contact any member of ALM's staff and we'll be happy to help!
