AOEC ASSOCIATE CLINIC MEMBERSHIP
Some clinics may not meet all of the
criteria for Full Clinic Membership
but still wish to join AOEC.  The AOEC
Associate
Clinic Membership allows the clinic to participate in collaborative research and educational activities.  However, Associate clinic members do not have representation on the AOEC Board of Directors and are not featured on the AOEC website.  AOEC will still refer individual inquiries to Associate Clinics with regard to location and needs of the inquirer if a full AOEC member clinic cannot meet the needs.  AOEC encourages associate member clinics to strive for Full Clinic Membership and will fast-track applications once the associate clinic meets all criteria for full membership.
Membership Fee:
$350/year
