AERA’s New Membership System Launches October 1
What You Need to Know

What’s Happening

On October 1, AERA will launch a new membership system—re:Members—to better support member engagement and association functions. This new platform will replace NOAH (MyAERA), which has served AERA for more than 20 years.

How the Transition Will Roll Out

The rollout will happen in two phases:

Phase 1 – Launching October 1 (with the opening of the 2026 membership year):

• Membership renewals and new memberships
• Member account management  

Phase 2 – Launching December 2025 through January 2026

• Annual Meeting registration
• Governance and committee functions
• Publication purchases and additions
• And more

What You Need to Do Beginning October 1

• To renew or join for 2026, members will need to log in to the new system (re:Members) via the AERA website. Membership details (including contact information and profile) will also be managed there.
• To access other services (e.g., All Academic, AERA’s annual meeting submission, review, and session creation platform, and governance functions), use the existing platform (MyAERA) until December.

Access the Systems

Beginning October 1, you’ll be able to reach both the new and existing systems though the AERA website.

More Information Coming Soon

The week of September 22, AERA will provide detailed instructions on how to access and use the new platform during the first roll-out phase.

Why the Change?

A robust membership system that takes advantage of technological advances is essential for associations like AERA. re:Members will improve the members experience by making easier to join, renew, and access benefits and services.
