All participants will be registering on-line this school year for the state WORD membership. This presentation will help and answer questions about registering on-line.
Purpose: This will help you navigate through the procedure to register electronically for individuals joining WORD and to be a part of your council and/or events this school year, 2015-2016.
Helpful Hints: • Have a computer available for walk-ins to register on-line for
the WORD membership fee. We want to encourage all participants to join our organization and this will provide councils a percentage of the fee to be used for future events.
• The Winter and Spring events organized by the state uses a portion of the membership fees and registration cost to bring nationally known presenters.

Individuals should pay by credit card to help keep an accurate record at the state level. It is very important all members register on the state ZAP account.
