Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is AACRAO discontinuing listservs?

    No. AACRAO is transitioning listservs from Google Groups to a new platform - the AACRAO Exchange. This platform provides a similar experience to our listservs plus additional functionality (file storage, links to needed resources, a member search, search by tags, etc).

    Existing Google Group subscriptions have been integrated into the AACRAO Exchange. Once logged in, navigate to Communities > My Communities in the navigation bar to access them. You can receive notification of discussion in a daily or weekly digest. Updating your “Discussion" notification settings to "real time" allows you to respond to conversations directly from your email in real-time. Google Groups will shut down on Dec 20, 2023.

  • I’m not an AACRAO Member. How do I access the AACRAO Exchange?

    At the 2023 Business Meeting, AACRAO members voted to eliminate roster limits. This vote ensures access to membership for all employees of institutions with active membership status. This new policy will go into effect in December 2023. Becoming an AACRAO member is easier than ever.

    Check your membership status online then contact AACRAO Membership at membership@aacrao.org to determine your options for becoming a member today.

Benefits of an Online Community 

Online communities are great supplements to in-person communities. You can use the AACRAO Exchange to take advantage of your AACRAO member benefits, participate in important conversations about new developments in the field, and create connections with colleagues from around the world. 

All AACRAO members are encouraged to join the AACRAO Exchange today.

Inside the AACRAO Exchange, you’ll be able to: 

  • Quickly scan the latest AACRAO announcements 
  • Join AACRAO Communities of Practice (CoPs) 

A Community of Practice (CoP) is a space for members and industry experts to come together to solve challenges facing the field. It is not a Learning Community - a forum for discussion - but rather has structure and intentionality built in to further the work.

  • Participate in AACRAO Caucuses, PACs, and other special interest groups 
  • Create new connections and connect with colleagues you’ve met at previous conferences and events 
  • Ask questions of the experts 
  • Brainstorm with peers 
  • And much more! 

The AACRAO Exchange is one of your member benefits, and a space we created as a result of ongoing member requests for access to other members outside of the AACRAO Annual Meeting and the Strategic Enrollment Management Conference. We hope you’ll login, explore the space, ask questions, interact with colleagues, and drop us a message telling us what you like and what would make the community even better for you.
