LANA MEMBERSHIP

Did you know that LANA has a membership program, separate from being LANA certified? Yes, we do! Once you are LANA certified, you are eligible to become a member of LANA. This is an annual membership program. Effective July 1, 2009, membership dues will be $55.00 for a one year membership. Being a member of LANA allows you to log into the members only section of the LANA website. From there, you can interact with other LANA certified therapists, review abstracts and take quizzes that earn "points" towards your LANA recertification, and many other perks. In the next LANA Physician Directory, your name will stand out from non-members of LANA. In the LANA on-line directory, LANA members's names appear before non-members so you have more exposure. Please feel free to email LANA if you have questions. If you are interested in becoming a member, please visit the LANA website and download the application and submit with payment.

HAVE YOU MOVED? CHANGED EMPLOYERS? CHANGED EMAIL ADDRESSES?

If you are LANA certified and have moved, changed employers, changed email addresses, etc... since your initial certification, please be sure to keep LANA up to date with your information.  Please email LANA at lana@clt-lana.org and let us know your current information.  Annually, LANA sends out mailings and we'd like to make sure that you receive your material.  If you are not sure that we have your correct information, please feel free to check your profile on the LANA website and if it is not correct, please email LANA at lana@clt-lana.org.
