Membership: The Tri-Association has different types of memberships available to schools. Schools that belong to one of the three sub-regional organizations; ACCAS, ASOMEX AND AACSA are considered regular members of the Tri-Association and have full membership benefits. The Tri-Association also offers invitational membership to educational institutions within our physical region that are not regular, full members of ASOMEX, AASCA or ACCAS (because they do not necessarily fit the criteria required by our three sub-regional organizations). We also offer these types of memberships to schools outside of our physical Tri-Association region (Mexico, Central America, Colombia and the Caribbean).
