Making the Most of Your Upgraded IAC

IAC has been working to make your membership:

more useful
more connected
easier to navigate

The result is an Upgraded Member Resource Center designed to put more of the tools and opportunities available through IAC in one place.

Whether you are

leading a creation ministry
running a museum
giving tours
teaching
organizing events
or looking for ways to strengthen your work

Our Member Resource Center is a good place to start!

Our goal is simple: Help you spend less time searching and more time doing the work God called you to do!

Stay Informed. Think Deeper. Stay Connected.

The Member Resource Center now brings together three ways to keep up with the broader IAC community:

IAC News - keeps you informed about what is happening across the network, including organizational updates, new initiatives, partnerships, advocacy efforts, member announcements, and opportunities.
IAC Insights - gives you a place to explore ideas, research, interviews, and perspectives from people working throughout the creation community.
The IAC Blog goes deeper into topics related to biblical creation, ministry, education, museums, culture, and the ideas shaping our work together.

But our Resource Center is about much more than reading!

Find Practical Help for Your Ministry

One of the biggest benefits of the Upgraded Portal is the growing collection of practical resources available to IAC members:

The Best Practices Library brings together practical approaches and insights from across the IAC community. Rather than having to figure everything out on your own, you can learn from the experience of other leaders.
The Ministry Self-Assessment and Ministry Success Path can help you evaluate where your ministry is today, identify areas for improvement, and turn your vision into practical next steps.
The Certified Ministry Program provides another way to measure biblical worldview and theological understanding while identifying opportunities to strengthen your programs.

And when you need more individualized help, IAC offers Hourly Consulting and Member Care Assistance to help you navigate challenges, access resources, and make the most of your membership.

Connect With the IAC Community

Ministry can sometimes feel like you're doing everything yourself. IAC is designed to help change that.

The IAC Community Directory makes it easier to find other creation ministries, organizations, professionals, and members. Through the IAC Member Exchange, members can request feedback, exchange resources, discuss ideas, and explore collaborative opportunities.
There is also a private online community where members can ask questions, share ideas, and connect with others doing similar work.
The portal also brings together opportunities that can save members both time and money, including the Free Homestay Network, Preferred Vendor List, and Jobs Board.
And if you want to know what is happening throughout the wider Creation community, the Community Calendar provides a place to discover conferences, programs, and other events.

Participate. Grow. Give Back.

The Resource Center is not simply a collection of things IAC provides for you. It is also a place where you can participate in the work of the larger community. You can:

Find IAC Advocacy Updates
Discover ways to get involved
Explore opportunities to partner with IAC, and
Share your testimony about how God is using your ministry, and how IAC helped along the way.

As our IAC Community continues to grow, The Resource Center will continue to grow with it. Why not TAKE A LOOK?
