NCGE Members & Customers:

Thank you for your patience while we upgrade our web site, online store, membership database, and members only page. Our goal is to provide an effective, efficient system that communicates information on geography education, and how to join NCGE, register for the National Conference on Geography Education, order publications, and more! While we are working on the new site, we will not be updating these pages. As a result, the online store will not be available during the upgrade. Orders may be placed with the Central Office using the contact information below.

We will send membership renewal information when the membership section of the web site is functional. If your membership expired between August 2008 and December 2008, it will be extended through February 28, 2009. You will not miss any publications.

If you need any other current information, please contact the NCGE Central Office.
