There are many reasons and benefits for applying for a membership with the AWP. We are constantly upgrading our site and services, adding new features, planning new events, and coming up with great ideas to support the community. We can currently offer members a free membership, ability to communicate with other members for networking and problem solving via forum and chat, and ability to author articles and educational documents. However, these are just the basic things. As a member of AWP, you can have pride as such. Employers and colleagues will soon recognize this as a seal of approval, because not all applicants to AWP will be accepted. As a member, you have a chance to be featured, which is great recognition for your work and/or company, but also a great way to get noticed as a prominent developer in the field. You'll have the ability to have a public profile, increasing contact and networking if you so choose. Articles and educational writings are encouraged and welcomed, and exceptional educational documents can earn you benefits and get you great recognition as a member. It isn't just another organization to look good on your resume, it is something you'll actually use and appreciate!
