Finding the right aviation organization for you.
Your first step should involve researching various aviation organizations that are directly related to your career field in the aviation industry . Talk to others in your career field about aviation organizations that they are familiar with or belong too. Once you have identified a few aviation organizations that interest you, you should make sure they match your interests and/or address your concerns.


Before joining any aviation related organization, you should:
Research it to learn more about their mission, goals, programs, and/or services offered to its members and/or the community.
Request to attend a meeting before you officially join the aviation organization.

Some general things you need to know about aviation organizations:
Most organizations have some type of yearly or monthly fee. These fees are typically used to support the organization and its programs and/or services offered to the members or the community.
Organizations rely on their members involvement, which is critical to their success; without active members - there is no organization.
Don't expect the organization to answer every question and be everything you need.
Most aviation organizations meet at least once a month to discuss their business matters.

Your involvement counts.
If you want to get the most out of an organization, don’t just go to one or two meetings; attend regular, volunteer your time, or serve on a committee. That’s how people will get to know you and you can meet and interact with the members. Joining the correct aviation organization and/or club can possibly give you a jump-start and boost your aviation career.
