Dollar-for-dollar dues match and complimentary membership offer designed to unite audiologists at the state and national level
Frankfort, Ky — The Academy of Doctors of Audiology (ADA) is pleased to announce the launch of the AuDvantage Membership Program, a strategic partnership initiative designed to strengthen state audiology associations, encourage professional engagement, and support the long-term future of the audiology profession.
The AuDvantage Membership Program is built on one simple principle: The audiology profession grows, thrives, and succeeds when state audiology associations grow, thrive, and succeed.
"AuDvantage represents ADA’s long-term commitment to strengthening state audiology associations and increasing collaboration, information sharing, and advocacy within and across states to advance the profession of audiology and improve access and outcomes for the patients we serve," said Jill Davis, Au.D, President of ADA. “ADA is aiming for 100% ADA member participation in their state associations. And, we believe it is so important that we are willing to make a substantial investment to offset the cost of their state memberships completely.”
AuDvantage offers a dual membership benefit for audiologists nationwide, structured around two core offers:
- Current ADA members who join or renew their state audiology association membership will receive a dollar-for-dollar discount off their 2027 ADA membership dues, equal to the amount paid in eligible state association dues. Simply complete the AuDvantage form.
- Audiologists who are new to ADA, or who have not held ADA membership within the past three years, will receive a complimentary ADA membership through December 31, 2027 (up to an 18-month, $900 value), when they join or renew their state association membership. Simply complete the AuDvantage form.
AuDvantage also introduces the ADA State Association Partner Program, giving state associations access to ready-to-use communications resources, member participation reporting, and future eligibility for State Advocacy Investment Grants beginning in 2027. An Emerging State Initiative extends engagement opportunities to audiologists in states without an active state association. If your state does not have an active state audiology association, you can still participate in AuDvantage! Please contact Stephanie Czuhajewski at [email protected] for more information.
ADA is administering AuDvantage directly, creating no additional administrative burden for state associations. Participating audiologists simply submit proof of state association membership to ADA, which handles verification, benefit application, and ongoing participant communications. Audiologists and state audiology associations interested in learning more should visit the AuDvantage Page or contact Parker Allen at [email protected].
