Focus on Benefits: Member discounts
Written by Ruth Farrugia RGD, City of Côte Saint-Luc
The RGD Membership has its privileges! As co-chair of the Membership Committee, I want to share some of the amazing resources and benefits that Membership provides and encourage all RGD Members to take advantage of them. If you’re not an RGD Member yet, now’s the time to join!
Certified, Student, Associate and Affiliate RGD Members all have access to valuable Member discounts.
If you haven’t taken a look lately, there are a myriad of discounts available, with more on the horizon.
Some benefits are very general. Get and stay fit with discounts at GoodLife Fitness. Keep connected with a discounted mobile plan from Bell. Protect your home and/or car with belairdirect or access travel insurance from Johnson Insurance.
RGD Members can also sign up with Perkopolis, which is a nesting doll of discount offers. Once you sign up, you have access to various discounts on anything from clothes, gear, tech, travel or even online therapy.
“I love a deal so I always check Perkopolis first. I recently used it for a 15% discount on a hotel stay. Definitely worth it.”

If you want to continue your education and up your professional cred, there are discounts for professional coaching from ThinkSmith and online courses from Editors Canada, Brain Station and Interaction Design Foundation.
Bored with your current collection of typefaces? There are type foundry discounts for RGD Members from I Love Typography (ILT) and Pangram Pangram. Display those posters you’ve worked so hard on with Afix poster displays.
Stay inspired with a discounted subscription to various design and illustration magazines (3x3, Azure, Find). Stock your bookshelves with design inspiration and food for thought with a discount at SwipeDesign.
There are so many offers to take advantage of and they all come with your RGD Membership.
