MEMBERSHIP PROGRESSION
AOSpine follows a simple, transparent system of membership progression: BRONZE, SILVER, GOLD, PLATINUM.

HOW TO CLIMB THE LADDER Every position or activity within AOSpine is assigned a defined points value. You earn your points by contributing to AOSpine—your community. Example: Supply an interactive case study Attend a Board, Council, or Committee meeting Mentor a colleague on a forum Act as faculty at an AOSpine course Provide an article for one of our journals Introduce a colleague to AOSpine Even keeping your AOSpine profile up to date earns points!

WHAT DOES STATUS MEAN?
Subscribing members who are prepared to get involved in the AOSpine community are entitled to further rewards and opportunities, eg: 

• Preferential discounts on a wide range of AOSpine products and services
• Exclusive offers

Those members who reach Platinum status have clearly given a lot of time, energy, and commitment to the organization. This dedication deserves particular recognition and should open new doors. Platinum status consequently represents a qualifi cation to stand for election for a position on an AOSpine Board, Commission, or Committee etc.
