The Reinstatement Policy is the path for former members to rejoin and recover their
certification. The process can occur at any time during the year. The reinstatement process is for
a previous member who wants to rejoin as a Certified Member or for an Alumni Member who
wants to move out of Alumni into Certified Membership status.
Note:
● The reinstatement process is the same for all disciplines.
● If wishing to rejoin PSIA-AASI and do not want to pursue or maintain a certification,
rejoining can be done as an Alumni Member (if qualifications are met) or as a
Registered Member and bypass the reinstatement process.
● If currently an Alumni Member and want to move membership status to Certified Member,
the same reinstatement process needs to be completed and pay fifty-percent (50%) of the
reinstatement fee.
● This link will take you to a reinstatement form to fill out to start the process, or contact us via email (info@psia-nw.org) or phone/text at 206.244.8541.
