The LCCEA membership is one of the strongest in the state of Oregon for community colleges.  Join us to maintain our powerful collective voice.  Being a member allows you to:

  • participate in OEA/NEA Professional Development events
  • apply for OEA/NEA Professional Development Grants
  • apply for OEA Foundation Grants for students
  • vote in LCCEA elections and on negotiated contracts
  • serve on LCCEA committees
  • access attorney representation
  • access OEA/NEA discounts (e.g. from entertainment services to personal loan offers)
  • access peer facilitation and mediation services.

Our membership gives us strength in bargaining contracts to maintain competitive wages, gain COLAs and steps and have outstanding health care benefits. If you aren’t sure you are an LCCEA member, or have questions about membership, please contact a Membership Committee member:
