Delta Kappa Gamma offers women educators an amazing opportunity to belong to an organization that promotes professional and personal growth among its members as well as excellence in education. However, far too often our definition and vision of educator doesn’t extend beyond the traditional school environment.
The Expansion Committee would like to hear from you, the members of Delta Kappa Gamma, about members in your chapter that don’t fit this conventional mold. It’s time to think outside the box and extend the invitation of membership to educators in all fields and areas!
Are you unsure of what this might look like or who we might be thinking of as we begin this new way of thinking? Here are a few examples to jumpstart the discussion:
Counselor
Physical Therapist
Corporate Trainer
Personal Trainer
Financial Counselor
Bank Trainer
Christian Education Director
Camp Instructor or Director
Preschool Teacher
Librarian
Human Resources Trainer
Facilitator
Trades Teacher
University Staff
Food Service Instructor
IT Trainer
Paraprofessional
Yoga Instructor
Museum Curator
CPR Instructor
Please share additional ideas in your response. Truly anyone who educates others and receives a payment for her services would be a candidate to consider. As stated on the Society website, a candidate for membership must be or have been employed as a professional educator at the time of her election. We need to continue to expand our membership base to ensure that Delta Kappa Gamma enjoys a long-life far into the future.
California chartered a chapter whose members are holistic health instructors. We are working to keep this new group engaged. To do so we need to be open to hearing new ideas.
