AEJMC membership is required for application of AEJMC awards. Many AEJMC calls for award and grant nominations have been revised. One of the directives during the past year for AEJMC leaders has been to revise language in all calls to better reflect inclusivity and diversity. So, if you are nominating or self-nominating, please be sure to follow the new guidelines below.
