  • #8 Received feedback from students at ICE 2011 that students think that $59 is a great rate for ASTD membership and students believe that they use more of their ASTD membership than other members. They also want all of the benefits of the professional membership. Stress it is enroll 12 credit hours per year in an accredited college.
