ABOUT US
An International Society for Key Women Educators
Chapter Association
Local chapter members have many commonalities in backgrounds and interests. Many chapters have local outreach programs and projects that support community needs. Support for K-12, collegiate, and contuning educators reaches across generations for mentoring and classroom assistance.
State Organization Network
State organization activities, conferences, conventions and leadership training bring like-minded women together for networking, team building and larger area outreach programs and projects. Scholarships for further study and stipends for professional and personal growth are typically available to members.
International Connections
Through common purposes, experiences and collaboration, members broaden their scope of education globally. This not only increases career capital, but also creates a more generous and expansive view of education as a profession. International conferences and conventions bring together members for renowned speakers, breakout sessions and camaraderie. Millions of dollars in scholarships and grants are invested in study and projects proposed by members.
