Incentives History
Over the years AEE has had a number of awards and items available to the membership for various reasons. It was not until the implementation of the Fairshare legislation that the Longevity Incentive Award Program began. January 1, 2000, was the beginning of the program that now exists today. The Association no longer had a need to recruit for members to maintain a solid membership so the Board of Directors decided to implement an incentive program for members that choose to be active within the Association. The parameters included the milestones that needed to be reached as well as the date with which the program was to become effective. AEE chose to award those active members that reached the milestones of 5, 10, 15, 20 years, or higher to receive an incentive award designated for that particular milestone.
The Association then decided to change the incentive program in 2007. The Board of Directors opted to give incentives for each 5 year anniversary of a member's Active membership. The new changes to the Longevity Incentive program are not retroactive. These changes became effective July 1, 2007.
On January 20, 2026, the Association launched its first webstore. New and Milestone members are provided with a single use gift code for the online store. The webstore is open quarterly (coinciding with board meeting months; January, April, July, October) for 2 weeks at a time for members to utilize their codes. Anyone interested in buying customized AEE merchandise fulfilled through our partner GraphicFX can also purchase at this time. Store opening and closing dates are sent out via email.
