With more than 114,000 members, MENC, the National Association for Music Education is the world's largest arts education association. Through its many programs, activities, publications, and conferences, MENC works to promote the value of music education, foster the best possible music education programs in our nation's schools, and advance music education as a profession. MENC provides resources for Music Education Professionals and a forum for exchanging ideas. It promotes music as an essential area of study and encourages excellence in music by recognizing individual achievements and contributions to the profession. For collegiate members, you will discover new teaching methods and techniques, see the latest advancements and innovations, expand your network of professional contacts, find job opportunities, enhance credentials on your resume, develop leadership skills, and gain insight into the professional world. Member benefits include discounts on resources and attending conferences on the national, regional, and state levels. You are automatically a member of the state organization (NCMEA). There is an online job center. And most importantly, as an educator-in-training, MENC is your permanent advocate for the importance of an education that includes music: it champions the National Music Education Standards, www.SupportMusic.com, and sponsors outreach programs such as Music In Our Schools Month (MIOSM) and the World's Largest Concert. Other benefits include the MENC MasterCard, group insurance, term life insurance, and rental car discounts!! This is a professional organization--not a fraternity, sorority, or club. It allows you as a college member to explore the field of music education and experience conferences, sessions on topics that interest you in education, and get involved in education in general.
