Affiliate Benefits

Below is a list of programs and services available to TESOL affiliates. Current affiliate leaders receive email reminders of deadlines and new programs. To ensure your association is taking advantage of affiliation with TESOL International Association, please send TESOL a leadership update when your leadership changes.

TESOL Affiliate Speaker Requests: Need an informative keynote speaker for your annual affiliate conference? Read the bios of the available speakers from the TESOL Board of Directors, the Affiliate Leadership Council, or TESOL staff. Applications are reviewed twice a year. 

Complimentary TESOL Memberships: Affiliates annually have access to 7 complimentary TESOL International Association memberships. 

The Affiliate News is a forum for affiliates around the world to share their association’s news and experiences. 

TESOL Worldwide Calendar of Events: Tell TESOL members about your upcoming events. This online calendar, updated on a monthly basis, is an excellent site to promote your affiliate conference and other professional development events.

TESOL Label Requests: Would you like to expand your annual affiliate conference attendee list? Once a year, TESOL will provide mailing information of members who reside in your region; TESOL asks the affiliate to reciprocate. Emailed requests should include the name of the event to be promoted and in what format you need the information (.csv, .txt, etc.). 

Online Leaders' Community:  Network and exchange ideas with other association leaders throughout the year.
