NOTE: If a member is not on the roster, they will not be provided with professional liability insurance or have access to any other NAAE benefits during the membership year.



Compiling Your State’s Membership

1. Obtain membership information and payment from your state’s members.–NOTE: Members who renew their

NAAE membership at their first available opportunity (i.e. state teacher’s conference) will have no lapse in their professional liability coverage.


Compiling Membership


You can obtain membership information several different ways. You can decide what is best for your state or use the following method:




• Distribute blank demographic sheets to your state members and have them complete the entire sheet and return to you with their payment.– An electronic copy of the demographic

sheet was provided to you with your membership roster email. You can also find the electronic file at www.naae.org/membership/rosters. Make copies as needed.




Make sure at the minimum the following is completed and returned to the NAAE office:

• First & last name of member

• Email address

• State

• Questions in gray box on demographic form



Before entering info into your Excel Spreadsheet:

• Please save the 2012-2013 NAAE Membership Roster to your hard drive on your computer or to another reliable storage source (CD, USB flash drive, etc.)

• When you begin your changes to the roster, save the new version as another name (ex: 2012-2013 NAAE Membership Roster-1st Round, 2012-2013 NAAE Membership Roster-(insert current date), etc.) or whatever name works best for your situation.

• Once you submit your first round of membership you can always go back to that original Excel spreadsheet to add additional members without retyping everything. Just continue to save each

roster that has new changes as a different name.


Compile all of the information in the 2012-13 membership form, which is provided to you in Excel format. This was emailed to you with your 2012-2013 Membership Roster email. If you did not receive your information, please contact the NAAE office ASAP.



Ag Ed Magazine Subscriptions
