For individuals who have let their membership lapse, we offer multiple pathways for reinstatement. We recommend you reinstate with the division you currently work or live in.

The Reinstatement Policy is the path for former members to rejoin and recover their certification.

The process can occur at any time during the year. The reinstatement process is for a previous member who wants to rejoin as a Certified Member or for an Alumni Member who wants to move out of Alumni into Certified Membership status.

Note:

The reinstatement process is the same for all disciplines.

• Individuals who wish to re-join PSIA-AASI, without regaining their certification credentials, may do so as a Registered Member, or as an Alumni member (if you were previously a certified member for six (6) or more years). Members also have the option to repeat the certification process if they would like another way to become an active certified member.
• If you are an Alumni Member and want to move membership status to Certified Member, please refer to the alumni reinstatement policy.

Reinstatement Process

  Leader.

*While you are going through the reinstatement process your membership card will show “certified inactive” status until you meet the reinstatement process requirements and return to “certified active” status.

Individuals wishing to re-join PSIA-AASI as an Alumni member must have an original join date of at least 10-years prior.  Alumni members will be excused from continuing education requirements and their certifications will be inactive.  View our page on Alumni Membership for the full details.

For the purpose of reinstatement as listed above, “year” and/or “season” refers to the membership season of July 1 – June 30.  All memberships, regardless of their reinstatement date, are up for renewal in June and will expire June 30th if not renewed.
