Membership is comprised of adult educators from around the country who are represented on the COABE Board by region.
Membership in COABE may be accomplished on an individual or group basis. Some major benefits members receive include discounted conference registration rates; subscription to the COABE newsletter; the opportunity to apply for a COABE incentive grant or scholarship; and the chance to be a recipient of a COABE award. Most of all, being a member of COABE is very inexpensive. Apply for COABE membership online (requires payment by credit card), or download a copy of the membership application.
