ASCD believes that in today's fast-paced world educators increasingly value member benefits that can be received quickly, can be read in any location, and are environmentally friendly.
As a result, ASCD is proud to announce two new membership categories designed to serve individuals who prefer to receive their benefits electronically. Premium Onlineand Select Onlinememberships provide the same great benefits that current Premium and Select members receive. The key difference is that Premium Online and Select Online members enjoy their benefits, including books, completely online.
Online members can download the same member books that our "classic" Premium and Select members receive as soon as they become available. These online books are delivered in PDF format and can be read on a variety of e-readers as well as on the computer—perfect for educators on the go.
Online members are informed of their benefits each month in ASCD Delivers, our new monthly e-newsletter, which provides a direct link to each benefit.
"More and more educators are seeking instant, digital access to the resources that can make an immediate impact on their practice," said ASCD Executive Director Gene R. Carter. "ASCD's new online membership categories enable educators in our global learning community to electronically access more essential resources than ever before, and at a lower cost."
In addition to the Select Online and Premium Online plans, ASCD will continue to offer hybrid print-online membership plans as well as the <EMPH TYPE="4">Basic Onlinemembership option.
