YourMembership
An integrated AMS and LMS may suit an education-led association, but confirm the products, integrations, services and terms included in your specific proposal.
Plan your migration
- Inventory course completions, certificates and learning records separately from membership data. Ask how AMS and LMS records will be transferred and reconciled.
- Inventory contact records, membership types, renewal dates, consent preferences and documents. Confirm what your current vendor can export.
- Map fields and relationships with your new provider. Test a sample import and reconcile member, contact and payment totals before the full move.
- Review recurring payment permissions, open invoices, accounting mappings, website URLs and email-domain settings. Payment credentials may need a separate transition.
- Agree on staff training, member communications and a cutover date. Keep access to historical records and confirm your existing notice and renewal terms.
