Membership 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.
  • 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.
  • attend webinars (online seminars) offered by leaders in contemplative education. Webinar attendance is free of charge. Past webinars are archived on the website and may be viewed by the public.
  • receive a $50 member discount on attendance fees at summer sessions, conferences and retreats.

 

Our Online Social Community Is Here!

  • Create albums and upload photos to your profile to share with other members.
  • Status messages give you a way to share what you're working on with other members.
  • Profiles have a "wall" where connections can leave messages for each other.
  • Join circles for special interest and discussion groups. You can create photo albums within Circles too!
