Frequently Asked Questions
Membership provides educational and professional development opportunities, allows you to earn continuing education points, helps you stay current with technology changes in our field, and allows for opportunities to socialize and get to know your colleagues.
Every spring ACRA holds a conference for the opportunity to earn 10 CE points, and at the business meeting the members vote on a venue for the next spring meeting.
Past venues include Little Rock, Hot Springs, Heber Springs, Conway, Eureka Springs, and more.
We are always open to suggestions from our members for a venue that is centrally located and would make a fun weekend getaway! We want to learn AND have fun!
Membership dues are renewed yearly.
If you have questions regarding your CE credits, call Nancie Givens at the Office of Professional Programs 501-374-1855.
