Active
This type is for members who teach music in any school setting, teach private lessons, are a music minister, or are a parent sponsoring a homeschooled child in TMEA auditions. View current dues.
If pursuing a degree while working in one of these capacities, you should still maintain Active membership.
Retired
For members who have retired from employment related to music education activities: View current dues.
Only Active members may sponsor students in auditions and receive CPE credit. If you retired yet continue to teach more than 20 hours privately, you should maintain an Active membership.
College
This type is for those who are full-time college students (even if you are student teaching). View current dues.
College Student membership does not allow you to earn CPE credit or enter students in competition. If you are employed to teach music 20 or more hours per week, including private lessons, you should maintain Active membership, even if you are concurrently taking upper-level college courses.
