Export membership roster

Instead of beginning with a blank roster template, you can export all your memberships from a previous membership year. Then, you can add, remove and/or update memberships. Afterward, you can import the updated roster for the current membership year. Unlike the blank national roster template, an exported roster will contain all your memberships for the selected prior membership year. As a result, you do not have to manually enter all your returning members from the previous year. However, this export does not have drop-down menus with the national-defined format for the following data points:

• Membership Type
• Prefix
• Mobile Carrier Type
• State
• Grade
• High School Graduation Year
• High School Graduation Month
• Gender
• Race/Ethnicity

National FFA requires High School Graduation Year and High School Graduation Month for student memberships. Your state may require Gender and Race/Ethnicity for student memberships. For a successful import, be sure to use the national-defined format when entering these data points. Use Search and Advanced Search to view membership(s) from the previous membership year.
