# Joining the Art of Ed Community

## Follow the steps below to create your Art of Ed Community account:

Create your free account by visiting this link: [community.theartofeducation.edu](http://community.theartofeducation.edu). There, you will be able to “Request to Join” The Art of Ed Community by creating a new account. 

- We strongly encourage using a personal email address for your Community account creation, in case you leave your current district and lose access to your school email.
- Should you need to change the email associated with your account, you may do so by following [these steps](https://community.theartofeducation.edu/posts/faqs-all-about-email-addresses).
- Teachers will be asked several screening questions, which help to ensure the safety of our Community and ensure that our members are real educators working in the field of art education.
- Requests to join can take up to 2 business days to be approved.
- Upon creating an account, members will be emailed a verification form to complete that provides proof of art teacher status. Completion of this form will also award members a special "verified" badge in the Community that makes members eligible to win contests within the Community.
- After joining the Community, members are encouraged to fill out their membership profile completely, and to complete tasks on their welcome checklist.

The Art of Ed Community offers a [“Community 101” course](https://community.theartofeducation.edu/spaces/16970638/content) to walk through the onboarding process for members so that they can use the Community to its full potential.
