Pay an annual fee of only 4,000 yen and you can become a LOCAL MEMBER of JALT Hokkaido. Local membership will entitle you to FREE entrance to all events put on by the JALT Hokkaido Chapter including the annual conference and Christmas potluck gathering. Local Membership means you will be part of JALT Hokkaido - a group dedicated to the philosophy of teachers helping teachers.

Annual LOCAL members of JALT Hokkaido are not members of JALT and WILL NOT receive an official JALT membership card issued by the Central Office in Tokyo. LOCAL membership DOES NOT entitle you to the standard benefits and publications associated with JALT Membership. Local Members can still subscribe to national Special Interest Group (SIG) publications but at a slightly higher fee by contacting the SIGs directly.
