ASB is seeking three members to serve as judges for the Product Development Competition.  The judges can be industry or academia.  Practical product development experience is preferred, but not required.  Judges will only serve one term.

Judging criteria and competition details can be found on the ASB website through the following link: http://www.asbe.org/pdc-main/

Please contact Executive Director Kent Van Amburg at kvanamburg@asbe.org if you are interested in serving.  Thank you.

Judges will receive complimentary registration to BakingTech 2015.

As the 2013/14 membership year comes to a close, it is time again to renew your annual ASB membership.

In a continuing effort to "go green," you can save time and postage by renewing online.  On July 1 the renewal season officially opens and members will receive an email with instructions to renew online.  

Hard copies of renewal packets will be mailed July 15th.   These packets will contain a renewal payment form for those members who do not wish to renew online.

Please note the deadline for renewal will be August 31, 2014.  If you do not renew by the deadline, your access to the valuable member tools and information on the website will be temporarily suspended until membership dues have been paid.

For questions concerning the upcoming renewal  period, or any general membership questions please contact the Membership Manager, Amanda Gonzalez, at agonzalez@asbe.org.

One of ASB's most valuable member benefits is the online Resource Library.

Until recently a great number of technical bulletins were only available in hard copy.  During the past membership year ASB has been steadily converting these documents to PDF and uploading them to the ASB website weekly.  

Technical Bulletins can be accessed in the ASB Resource Library using your ASB username and password.  

Website Tips: Update your ASB profile online.  Login onto www.asbe.org using your unique username/password, open the Membership tap drop down list from the left menu bar and select "Update Profile".  Then you may choose to update your profile information, or change your password.
