Membership
As we celebrate the holidays with friends and families, gift giving is often involved. I encourage you to take a moment and think about giving the gift of membership to the people who make a difference through education in a young person's life. Your gift will connect them to an association that advocates for thousands of early educators like themselves and hundreds of children. You also connect them to NAEYC and a local AEYC.
Even better, the receiver is now linked to thousands of dedicated leaders and educators locally and throughout the State. Members can take advantage of discounts on publications, workshops, GEICO insurance, special events and conferences. They also receive E-Connections, and the Connections journal, which are a wealth of helpful information.
As a member myself, I enjoy the publications and learning about the latest trends in the ECE community. The information I gain is both useful and inspiring.
Lastly, CAEYC’s 2016 Annual Conference & Expo will be held at the end of March and first part of April. Last year, more than 2,000 people attended. The conference had numerous practical workshops and thought provoking lectures. It is a must participate event! Membership with CAEYC provides a discount on registration and open the door to days of learning and resources.
So as you are checking off your list, be sure to surprise someone with a CAEYC membership. They will thank you.
Happy Holidays!
