What's New

  VIRTUAL MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY NOW ONLINE!

 We are pleased to introduce a new online membership directory for exclusive use by all of our members. This directory, designed by MemberClicks™, will improve the way we communicate and conduct our business. This online membership directory offers a number of powerful benefits and:

  • Is always up-to-date. Instead of waiting for a directory to be printed and mailed to you, all information can be updated by you within seconds at any time. You will be able to access the most current information at all times.
  • Allows easy communication and printing. By easily searching and selecting the data, you can send individual or group e-mails with just one click. Also you can print out a directory of the entire membership - or any subset.
  • Is always accessible. Just because you've misplaced your directory or don't have it with you, don't worry. The online membership directory can be accessed from any computer connected to the Internet at any time.
  • Is ready to go to work for you. It's not just a listing of pictures and information. You can use the directory to conduct searches for criteria on fellow stations as well as perform other valuable functions.
  • Improves networking capability. Now you'll have more tools to make your membership with AFE even more rewarding.

The online membership directory is up and running and can be accessed through the Member's Only section at www.afe.org. This directory, which can only be accessed by members of AFE, is password-protected. Therefore, to log on for the first time you will need your AFE Member ID number.

One of the main benefits of this online directory is that member records can be updated at anytime. Whenever any personal information changes, such as your job title, e-mail address or area code, you can simply go into the directory and edit your profile. It's that simple. However in order for all members to have access to the most current, reliable information, it is important for changes to be made promptly and accurately.

We encourage you to access the directory immediately to upload your picture and edit your profile. Additionally, you are strongly encouraged to personalize your user ID and password upon logging in. To edit your individual profile, search the directory, then click the magnifying glass to see your full profile. To make changes click on the pencil in the upper right hand corner of your profile. Make any changes you would like, then click on the Submit button (at the bottom) to save your changes.

We hope you thoroughly enjoy this new benefit of membership!
