As ASB enters a new fiscal year, we’re making strategic investments to deliver even greater value to members and the baking industry. Guided by member feedback and our recently approved business plan, we’re expanding education and training opportunities, enhancing the Education Hub, launching a Career Center to support workforce development, increasing regional engagement, and creating new ways for members to connect and learn throughout the year.
To support these initiatives and ensure ASB remains financially strong for the future, Professional Membership dues will increase by $40 beginning July 1, 2026. This adjustment reflects an ongoing commitment to maintain competitive membership rates while continuing to grow member value. It allows us to further invest in the programs, resources, and systems members rely on while supporting the long-term sustainability of the organization.
Your membership dues directly supports expanded technical education, professional development, and the volunteer-led community that makes ASB truly unique. Together, these investments strengthen both individual careers and the commercial baking industry as a whole, through year-round resources such as webinars, BAKERpedia access, the Commercial Bread Production Course, our Mentoring Program, ongoing regional and digital networking opportunities, and a more impactful BakingTECH experience, along with additional tools and programming designed to support members.
We’re excited about what’s ahead and look forward to continuing to invest in the advancement of our community.
