Membership in the American Choral Directors Association connects you to choral colleagues, provides you with access to tools and resources to help you and your choirs, and supports your professional development as a conductor and educator. Individual membership categories include: active, student, retired, non-conductor/educator, or international (for those living outside the U.S. and Canada). Visit this link at ACDA’s Membership Central for more info on the benefits of membership.
Joining ACDA and Renewing your Membership is EASY:
- You can download and print out the membership form and snail mail it in.
- You can also renew online at the ACDA membership page:
https://acda.org/membership-central/ - Contact ACDA at or (405) 232-8161 and ask for help.
If you are having issues renewing your membership:
- First, can you log in? Remember, your email address is your username. If you’re not receiving the reset password email at that address, ACDA may need to update your username manually. You can always contact ACDA at or (405) 232-8161 and ask for help!
- Second, can you renew once you log-in? If you aren’t able to move through the renewal process for some reason, please contact ACDA at or (405) 232-8161 and ask for a “pro forma invoice.” ACDA will email you a link to simply click on and pay your renewal dues.
- Reminder: If you are an Active member, you may opt-in to autorenewal of your dues the next time you renew your membership. Contact ACDA at or (405) 232-8161 and ask for help.
Refer a Colleague Program:
- Identify colleagues or students who would be great ACDA members
- A member invites them to join ACDA using this link: https://acda.org/singup/refer-a-colleague-program
- The referred colleague decides whether to take the next step. If they decide to join, they can use the printed membership form, or join online and notify the national office about the referral via an email to
- Success? We thank both parties! If someone joins ACDA as a new Active, Student, or Associate member and mentions the referring member’s name and membership number when they join, we’ll thank both with something special!
