ASA launched an enhanced member portal and Career Center on May 9, 2024. Important changes have been made to the login process which require action by individuals, departments, job seekers, and employers.
Click below to view information about:
Individual Access
Whether or not you are currently an ASA member, you will need to create a new password in the new ASA member portal to access your account. Your username is the primary email address you used in the old system. If you cannot remember your primary email address contact [email protected].
The first time you access the new ASA member portal, complete the following steps:
(1) Click Forgot your Password? under the Email/Username field.
(2) Enter your primary email address in the Email field and click Send Login Information.
(3) Follow the instructions in the password reset email. Please make sure your new password is at least 8 characters long and contains one number, one uppercase and lowercase character, and one special character.
Linking to Your Organization or Department
Benefits of linking to your Institution/Organization and Department include your affiliation appearing on your meeting submission, meeting badge, and in the Member Directory. As well as helping your organization/department account for who is an ASA member.
To link to your Organization and Department, follow the steps outlined here.
Note about Annual Meeting Online Portal: In order to access the Annual Meeting Online Portal, you must first follow the steps above to reset your password in the ASA member portal.
Note about Print Journals: If you receive one or more print journals, they are shipped to your primary mailing address. If you have not yet reviewed and made any needed updates to your primary mailing address in the new member portal, please do so today. If your Work address is your primary/shipping address, it is especially critical to check the Department field in your Work address and add missing department information if it is needed for reliable delivery of your journal. If your primary address is not where you want your journal(s) shipped, ASA will not be able to send a replacement copy to a different address. To review and make changes, log in to the member portal, navigate to the left-hand menu and click My Profile. Then, scroll down to the Primary Address Info heading to review your primary mailing address and make any updates. To update your Work address Institution/Organization and Department fields, you will need to edit your Employment information in the Education section, located above Primary Address. Your Employment Organization and Department changes will then populate in the Work address fields. To save any changes, click Update Profile at the bottom of the page when you are done. More detailed instructions on updating your organization and department are provided above under the section, Linking to your Organization and Department.
Department Access
Whether or not your department is a current Department Affiliate (DA), access to department accounts is no longer through department login credentials. Instead department accounts are accessed and managed via the individual account associated with the primary email address on file for your department. If you do not know the primary email address for your department contact [email protected].
The first time you access the new ASA member portal, complete the following steps:
(1) Click Forgot your Password? under the Email/Username field.
(2) Enter your primary email address in the Email field and click Send Login Information.
(3) Follow the instructions in the password reset email. Please make sure your new password is at least 8 characters long and contains one number, one uppercase and lowercase character, and one special character.
Once you have signed in, navigate to the left-hand menu and click on Your Organization. There, you will be able to update your department’s information and renew your DA membership. DA member benefits such as gift membership and TRAILS, can be accessed via the tabs on the left-hand menu.
