Joining the Oklahoma Education Association is easy, and as flexible as education professionals need it to be. In addition to joining at your school site and paying through payroll deduction or by cash, you may pay by credit card if you enroll online. Payroll deduction is still the best way to pay for membership. State law requires every school district to make available payroll deduction for professional membership. However, new members and returning members can pay online. “The registration automatically figures national, state and local dues and charges your VISA or MasterCard –OR- you can select “payroll deduction” and authorization will be sent to your local payroll clerk to begin monthly payroll deductions.
New and current members can pay dues through EFT. If you are an existing member and you choose to change your pay method to EFT (automatically comes out of your personal checking or savings account), you will need a two things:
- Your Member #. This can be found on your personalized OEA Membership Card or on any mailings from NEA.
- Your bank routing number and account number.
If you already pays dues through EFT, you can make changes to your bank routing information and add your home email address here.
If there are any changes to your mailing address or Local Association that appear on this site, you will need to contact your local association for those changes or contact Mary Robison at 800.522.8091 or at 405.528.7785.
