Membership Information
There are three types of memberships in CCEA: Professional, School, and Affiliate. The Professional Membership is designed for the educational employee, certificated or classified, who supports continuation education. Professional members receive a certificate of membership nice enough to frame, a numbered membership card, a personal copy of the State Newsletter, and a discount registration for the state conference along with a special President's Reception at the state conference. Professional Members are the driving force behind CCEA and continuation education. The annual membership fee is $50.00.
The School Membership is designed as a way to pay for those educational employees who cannot afford a professional membership. An example would be using a school membership to cover the cost of classified, volunteers, and part time employees. It is a way of bringing everyone who works at a school into the fold of CCEA. Member schools receive a school plaque and copies of the State Newsletter to be shared among the staff. When a school joins CCEA, the district superintendent also becomes a CCEA member. School Memberships are important because they provide the power CCEA needs to represent continuation education throughout California.
School Membership fees are based on school size as determined by the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) teachers on the school staff. The following chart outlines the fees:
| Teacher FTEs | Membership Fee |
3-6 | $250 |
7-11 | $425 |
12-16 | $525 |
17-20 | $725 |
20+ | $800 |
The last type of membership is Affiliate Membership. An affiliate member is a business owner, employee of a business or a business itself. Affiliate membership provides those businesses that support CCEA and continuation education with a direct connection to the organization's membership. They get a plaque to display at their company offices, a copy of the newsletter, and access to the membership only section of the organization's web site. Affiliate members can purchase a membership as designated below.
