Individual Member: $275 annual fee -- This is in addition to the required institution fee, which is assigned to the program administrator (PA) when they create an account. See PA membership page.
This class of membership consists of psychiatrists, including, but not limited to, Training Directors and Associate/Assistant Training Directors of general and subspecialty psychiatric residency programs, as well as chairs, vice chairs, and department heads who oversee such programs, and psychologists who are actively involved in psychiatry residency training (pending AADPRT leadership review). All Training Directors representing an institution must apply for an individual rather than an affiliate membership. Individual members have these benefits:
- Access to the website including Virtual Training Office (VTO) materials

- May submit a workshop and/or poster for consideration for the Annual Meeting

To become an individual member, Institution Dues, which are separate from Individual Dues, must be paid. These are assigned to the program administrator (coordinator) when they create their account. Individual Members of the institutional sponsor must complete the online membership application and pay with credit card. Psychologist member applications will be reviewed and approved by AADPRT leadership. Once the application has been approved and payment has been received, membership shall be granted.
Only Individual Members of ACGME-accredited programs can hold AADPRT leadership positions and be the voting representative for their program. Voting responsibility is assigned to the general psychiatry training director.

Affiliate members shall not have voting rights. If your program is not listed in the member application, contact the executive director before becoming a member. Similar to individual members, each affiliate member receives all of the aforementioned benefits plus:
