Benefits

Access to the ATLE discussion platform (Yammer)

There are three principal discussion groups you have the option of joining once a member of ATLE – Leadership, Education, Technology. In addition, there are some special interest groups which have ongoing conversation. You are welcome to join any of these groups. Looking for peers to discuss a specific topic of interest? Start your own special interest group, either public or private. A public group allows any other member to join the conversation. A private group is limited to peers you have invited to join the conversation.
