Technology Guide

The ELA Honor Society offers resources to assist with various aspects of membership and chapter management. The Chapter Sign-Up Guide, the Student Enrollment Guide, the Accessing Student Membership Certificates Guide, and the Annual Renewal Guide all provide support for processes taking place in ELA Gateway. Our AwardSpring Guide explains how to submit applications for ELA awards and grants using the AwardSpring platform.

Chapter Sign-Up Guide

A video tutorial and step-by-step guide is available to chapters completing the initial sign-up process.

Student Enrollment Guide

Enrollment is required for students to activate their ELA Honor Society memberships. The process is straightforward but, for those who need it, the ELA Honor Society has created a video tutorial and a step-by-step guide to enrollment and membership fee payment.

Accessing Student Membership Certificates Guide

Student membership certificates are now available in ELA Gateway.

Annual Renewal Guide

To keep their NEHS memberships active, chapters must complete annual renewal. The process is simple, but NEHS provides a video tutorial and a step-by-step guide to assist those who need help with the fee payment.

AwardSpring Guide

All submissions to ELA Honor Society awards and grants, whether by student members of Chapter Advisors, must be made via the ELA AwardSpring platform. Learn how it works.
