Phi Delta Kappa International is the premier professional association for educators. For more than 100 years, it has focused its work on the tenets of service, research, and leadership. PDK is one of the largest education associations in the world and has thousands of members dedicated to improving education, including teachers, principals, superintendents, and higher education faculty and administrators. PDK publishes the highly-regarded Phi Delta Kappan, the No. 1 education policy magazine, and sponsors the annual PDK/Gallup Poll of the Public's Attitudes Toward the Public Schools. PDK is the sole sponsor of the Future Educators Association® (FEA), a federally-recognized Career and Technical Student Organization (CTSO) and the only national and international professional organization that provides students who are interested in education-related careers with activities and materials that allow them to explore the teaching profession in a variety of ways. More than 250 local PDK chapters, most located on college campuses, and PDKConnect, the social networking site just for PDK members, give PDK members a unique opportunity to network with other like-minded educators. These are just some of the many benefits for PDK members. PDK’s mission is to support education, particularly public education, as the cornerstone of democracy. Its vision is to be the experts in cultivating great educators for tomorrow while continuing to ensure high-quality education for today.
