Benefits of Membership

At the Canadian Association of Second Language Teachers (CASLT) we believe an association must put the members first, as without members there is no organization. Our goals are to offer a range of products and services relevant to our members, and include additional added value elements going beyond their expectations. We use member research to better understand the wants and needs – through online surveys, monthly polls, telephone interviews, in focus groups, and in person meetings.

As a professional association, the CASLT mission defines key areas of activity for the organization. We strive to deliver member satisfaction and membership value through relevant tangible, and intangible, benefits.
