Adding the between associations?

Hi,

I am writing out the following sentence, and I'm unsure whether I need to place the word THE before each of the associations that I'm involved with.

Would I write:

Herbert is a member of the Association of Accountants and Professionals, Association of Certified Fraud Examiners and Institute for Professionals in Taxation.

or

Herbert is a member of the Association of Accountants and Professionals, the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners and the Institute for Professionals in Taxation.

Thanks!
