Sign in to "My DKG" and make it YOURS!

 I hope you are attending at least one of the 5 DKG regional conferences this summer! What a wonderful opportunity to explore great ideas, learn new things, visit with old friends and make new ones, network with the best educators in the world and celebrate what it means to be a woman and a professional. Attendance at a conference can enrich your membership experience in so many ways!

This summer, attendees will get a sneak preview of the member portal that will be part of the remodeled DKG website when it launches soon.  For now, however, members can enter the portal through a back door available in the Member Center on the Home Page at www.dkg.org.  By clicking on the gray banner titled "My DKG", members can access the Member Portal and sign in using the same information that was necessary for registration.  Use your member ID as your username and the default password shared with your chapter president in the Presidents' Page. The password was shared this way because this publication is the only one securely mailed in a sealed envelope, thus keeping our member portal secure to members only. Email or call me if you need assistance.

In the "My Account" area, members can create a personal profile for other DKG members to view, join communities,and network with other members from around the world.  But, be careful! The member data entered will be saved in the Society database as member contact data.  Thus, any changes will affect mailings and other Society communications in the future.

Check out "My DKG" soon and make it yours!
