ASCD invites affiliates to participate in a program created exclusively to help affiliates promote professional learning opportunities for their geographic area. Affiliates will have the opportunity to choose from select ASCD book authors and design events around those authors, such as seminars, book chats, book signings, book clubs, or presentations. Affiliates will be responsible for reimbursing travel, hotel, and meal expenses for authors who participate in the program. Authors will receive no consulting fee for their services. All bookings will be arranged through Constituent Services.

All ASCD affiliates are invited to participate in the Author's Forum, which ASCD is providing to allow ASCD authors and affiliates to develop collaborative relationships and to involve affiliates in the ASCD community through the promotion of ASCD products, programs, and services.

A listing of the current Authors Forum participants, including their travel and presentation format preferences, can be viewed by downloading the Authors Forum Brochure (PDF).
