Join your local chapter, receive key updates from CSTA, and connect with fellow CS teachers. You’ll also unlock access to valuable resources, discounts, and professional development for your teaching practice. CSTA strengthens local CS communities, as 50% of dues directly support CSTA chapter programs, including 20% that goes directly to your local chapter.
Membership Support
CSTA Membership Scholarships are available for teachers who need financial assistance to access membership.
If you teach in a Title I school and are in need of financial support to become a CSTA member, we encourage you to register for Amazon Future Engineer, which provides a variety of curricular resources in addition to a scholarship for CSTA membership. Learn more and apply here.
If you don’t qualify for an Amazon Future Engineer-sponsored CSTA membership, we encourage you to apply for a CSTA Membership Scholarship. You can review the application and apply here. Please know that our team reviews applications on a biweekly basis and you will receive an email letting you know if your application has been approved.
If you have questions about this process, please contact our Membership Team at membership@csteachers.org.
