Benefits of Membership
What will I get out of joining?
First, you will have the personal satisfaction in knowing your involvement will support the combined efforts of individual, organization, military installation, and school district members in improving the conditions that affect students in military families as they transition from school to school, state to state, and country to country, following their military parent (or parents) who defend our nation.
Second, you will have access to a "solution bank" of proven ideas developed by Coalition members who share their best practices, as well as annual conferences designed to promote a continuing dialogue and interaction between military installations and school districts concerning transition and other educational issues.
Third, an expanding web site provides one-stop access to transition information from a number of sources. Members are able to utilize specific programs through discreet access. Currently, the Interactive Counseling Centers provide secure electronic records-transfer using existing hardware/software/Internet connections currently available to schools and military installations. MCEC's SchoolQuest allows parents to put in information about each school age child and to access information on school districts and campuses located in the area of installations.
Fourth, you will have use of MCEC as an information resource and central point-of-contact to facilitate sharing of ideas, providing materials, researching questions, and relaying information via the Internet (primarily). Most of our publications are sent to members as part of their membership.
