Requirements for Teacher Membership

  • You MUST offer some kind of VIRTUAL programming. On-demand or Zoom workshops and/or programs are all acceptable. 
  •  You must have a website so that guilds may hire you and/or students can sign up for your workshops.  
  • You must provide a link to a video advertising your virtual workshops, lectures, and events. 
  • Applications welcomed from teachers worldwide!

How it works

  • After you purchase membership you will be given access to a form where you will enter your teaching information. You will be asked for your website link, your video link, and other information about your offerings. 
  • You do not need to fill out the form immediately upon purchasing membership, but your name will not be listed until the form is complete.  
  • You will be invited to join our private community of quilt teachers, currently on Facebook. 
  • Your membership begins at the time of purchase, not at the time you finish filling out the form.   
  • You will also be given a link to join the private membership community of the Academy for Virtual Teaching (see below.)

Video Introduction Recommendations

To be listed, you must provide a link to a video advertising your virtual workshops, lectures, and/or events during the registration process. Please host your video on your website (preferred), YouTube or the video hosting service of your choice. The video must be available for public viewing and you are required to provide a link to it during the registration process.

Don't overthink this or worry about getting into technical details. Guilds want to see the real you more than they want fancy video editing! You can simply hold up your phone, click record, then introduce yourself by name and tell people a little bit about what you teach and how they can sign up or hire you. If your video is hosted on your workshop page you can direct the viewer to scroll down and explore your offerings.

Changes and updates to your GQC directory listing

When you purchase a membership all of the data you enter on the registration form is used to populate the GQC website. You can update your information once for free during each membership period. If after that you want to make an additional change to your listing (for example a new website, email etc) there will be a $10 change fee and it may take up to three weeks for the update to appear on the website. Email us info@globalquiltconnection.com with any changes you would like to make. 

Refund Policy

We do not issue refunds for any reason. Lots of work goes on behind the scenes as soon as you complete the GQC membership form. Just as much goes into having to remove you. Thank you for your understanding.
