Membership Update

Hello and happy spring! We hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and that you are enjoying the start of another semester – and hopefully some better weather on the horizon too! A few membership things to keep in mind.

Staffing Updates

With any new academic semester often comes staffing changes and transitions. If you have bid farewell to a team member who held a PennACE membership or if you have welcomed someone new whom you would like to benefit from PennACE membership, please contact Kelsey Thompson with those updates to ensure your institution’s membership accounts are current.

Membership Accounts

If you are having trouble logging in to your PennACE membership account or can’t remember if you have an account, please check with Kelsey Thompson. A few troubleshooting tips to consider:

•Tip #1: Your username is your full email address

•Tip #2: If you can’t remember your password or would like to change it, click “Forgot Your Password?” on the login page.

Please do NOT create a new account unless we have concluded that you do not already have one. Even if you have not previously held membership, you may have an account if you have registered for a conference or professional development event as a non-member. This allows us to make sure our membership list is as current and up-to-date as possible.

Perks of Being a PennACE Member

There are so many benefits of being part of PennACE! The list could go on forever (not that I am biased!) but a few things to mention:

•Save money with discounted rates for the annual conference and professional development events

•Apply for grants for your organization

•Participate in various committees and board positions

•Nominate your students for the annual Student of the Year awards

•View and post to the job board

•Communicate with the entire PennACE community via the ListServ

I look forward to connecting with many of you at the annual conference this May in State College. Until then, I wish you all a happy and productive spring semester. And remember – do not hesitate to reach out with any membership questions!
