Why OMDR?

For years, PTAs have wanted a mechanism that would allow them to more quickly and cost-effectively collect dues, communicate with members, track demographics, and offer more member benefits. Using the technology available to us, National PTA kicked off their Online Membership and Dues Reporting (OMDR) project in 2003.

Designed to give local units the ability to enter data directly into the system, OMDR is a membership database that will help you keep track of your members, produce mailing labels, send mass e-mails to your members, and more.

Learn OMDR

National PTA continues to host webinars to help local units become familiar with OMDR and to answer your questions. Following are the dates and times (Eastern) of upcoming workshops which you can attend in the comfort of your own home -- all you need is a phone and the ability to connect online at the same time you are on the phone.

Register here for the free webinar(s) of your choice.
