MEMBERSHIP OPTIONS JOINING AFTERGUARD

There is a one time $395 membership initiation cost to become a member. This can be waived if enrolling in three or more courses at membership initiation. One year of membership dues is required. To help make that requirement simple for all, the first year of whatever level is chosen is paid up front. Starting with the second year, dues can be paid monthly, or annually (saving 1mo).
