Retired Professional Membership

You've worked hard. Now reap the benefits of your experience.

Special education and general education professionals continue to offer experience and knowledge to CEC members and the field. We welcome retired professionals to continue their membership after they no longer work in the field of education and/or receive a salary.

Still consulting or working part time? Check out our Professional Membership offerings here.

Please note: Retired Professional members are not able to purchase Professional Liability Insurance at this time. Please contact CEC Member Services for any questions.
