You can join Adelaide U3A through our membership administration system (UMAS for Members). It is used for all membership requirements, such as joining or renewing memberships, updating personal details, enrolling in courses and viewing and downloading enrolment details and invoices. It works on smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop PCs.
You don’t have to join U3A to see what Courses we offer, but you must be a financial member to enrol in courses, which you can do throughout the year.
