Become a Part of the Future of Listening

As a past president and life member of the International Listening Association, I urge you to read this note from the ILA Executive Director:

If you’ve been thinking of joining the International Listening Association (ILA), yet you keep putting off sending in your dues, then now is the BEST time for you to act.

In less than one week, membership dues are going to be increasing by 20 percent. Yet, if you join/renew before April 1 (traditionally referred to as April Fool’s Day), you will be, in essence, saving 20 percent.

At the annual convention this past week, the ILA membership voted to increase dues for all members by approximately 20 percent. Although we work hard to keep expenses as low as possible, as you know, costs have risen substantially since our previous increase in 2006. Dues for membership levels paid before April 1 (with anniversary dates before April 1) will remain at the current levels.

And if you are already a regular or student member, you should seriously consider a lifetime membership at the lower price of $1,000. Starting April 1, the price goes up to $1,5000 (or installments for five years of $350 for a total of $1750). In return, lifetime members receive reduced convention fees each year. All the current lifetime members would agree that this expenditure is very worthwhile.

You can complete a membership application or membership renewal online or download a PDF of the membership form. We look forward to seeing your name on the ILA membership roster!

Keep listening!

As always,
