Chapter membership is required for 活跃成员 and requires, in most cases, an additional annual dues fee. It is strongly recommended that you belong to your local chapter to derive the maximum benefit for your company. You may, however, belong to any chapter in addition to or in place of your local chapter. EASA’s chapters foster increased cooperation and fellowship by affording members opportunities to meet and exchange ideas and solutions to common problems. EASA’s chapters also keep members informed of industry trends through conferences, exhibitions and business meetings.
