The registration process allows you to select a Username (up to twelve characters) and your own password (a minimum of six charachters including one upper case, one lower case, one number and one special character).

The registration pages have explanatory ?help text? attached to each field. Some fields are optional, others are required. Feel free to explore the registration pages, you can always abandon the process at any time.

After you complete the registration page you will get automated emails to confirm you registration and any pending payment processes.

If you have previously selected an ?Auto Renewal? option an email will always be sent to remind you, you will always have the option of changing your details.

Please renew your membership on the website.

Members can renew their subscriptions three month before expiry and when renewal is overdue. You can upgrade your membership category at any time. Upgrade options are shown on the website.

A proposed new Username is tested immediately.Your Username must be no more than 12 characters and must also be unique on the website.

Preferred Operating System

The ATAA website is designed to work well on the Microsoft Operating systems from Vista onwards. It should work well on all other operating systems but this has not been tested.

Preferred Browsers

Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome are preferred with all all versions from early 2015. Current Microsoft Internet Exporer (in 2015) will also work well, however Microsoft do not fully follow standard W3 protocols so there may be small issues from time to time.

Designed Screen sizes

The website is designed to display best on screen sizes of 1280 x 768 and larger. A screen of 1920 x 1280 is ideal.

Mobile Phones

The website is designed to be responsive and re-size to lower screen sizes including tablets and mobile phones. This enables users to reads standard pages. Some pages (typically member registration) are unsuitable for small screen sizes.
