Ahead of the new rollout, ACSM suggests membership renewals and recertification should be completed before February 13, 2025

The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) is rolling out a new association management system (AMS) featuring enhanced self-service functions, including immediate access to benefits upon renewing or joining, password reset, membership and certificate PDFs, member type changes, chapter membership additions and auto-renewal.

Certification candidates will also find a streamlined application and bundled exam prep options, according to ACSM.

While ACSM gears up to launch the new management system, several website features will be shut down briefly between February 13 and 20, 2025. The following will be inaccessible during that period:

  • Members-only content 
  • Online courses 
  • Exam applications
  • Registration, scheduling and rescheduling 
  • Membership join and renewal 
  • The membership directory 
  • Recertification 

ACSM suggests that any urgent tasks, such as membership renewals and recertification, should be completed before February 13, 2025.

Detailed information and FAQs regarding the new system features can be found here.
