Get all the inside jokes, and a lot more!
Pricing and Benefits
Join us and you’ll be instantly connected with a network of scholars and practitioners who appreciate the value of using humor as a catalyst for positive change.
Sure, some of the members of AATH might be world-renowned humor researchers or internationally acclaimed speakers, but the cool thing is, when you’re a humor professional, you can’t take yourself too seriously! Instead, you get to network with supportive, approachable, and often times funny colleagues from around the world and learn the science and art of strategically using humor to elicit positive results.
