Benefits

The most compelling benefit of membership is that you will be an active participant in an organization dedicated to integrating values and insights from contemplative practice into teaching and learning in higher education. In addition, you’re invited to:

• become part of a professional network using a web-based community that allows you to share papers and publications, search other members' profiles, hold discussions, track projects, and publicize events.

• read and contribute to a quarterly e-newsletter featuring news from members and topics of interest, such as places for contemplation on campus, the ethics of teaching contemplative practice, and approaches to evaluating contemplative assignments.

• plan and attend regional and national conferences, helping to build agendas and contribute your research and ideas to the emerging field.

• receive advance application materials to attend Retreats for Academics and Summer Curriculum Development Sessions.
