President's Welcome |
Our Organization |
It is my pleasure to serve as your 2016-17 WBEA President and an honor to represent my home state of Montana this year. I want to take this opportunity to encourage each of you to take an active role in your professional organization. My experience with WBEA has done so many things to help me grow as a business educator over the course of my 37+ year teaching career, and I am truly grateful for the many opportunities and experiences I have gained through my involvement in this organization. As I begin my new career as the director of our local Boys & Girls Club, I know the skills and connections I have gained by being active in my professional organization will carry forward into my new adventure. Be active; take a leadership role; attend your state, regional and national conferences. You will be enriched by doing so.
Please join us in the beautiful town of Bozeman, Montana, for the 2017 WBEA Conference which will be held in February. We have many exciting things planned for you, including some great sessions, workshops, tours, and, of course, time to share with your colleagues. |
Welcome to the Western Business Education Association (WBEA), an affiliate of the National Business Education Association. WBEA seeks to share educational experiences that will prepare individuals to excel as consumers, workers, and citizens in our economic systems. WBEA is committed to providing our members professional development, networking, and learning opportunities through online resources and regional conferences.
Working closely with the States, Territories, and Provinces (S/T/Ps) that make up the western region, WBEA provides opportunities for these organizations to connect, share, and support business education programs at the local, state, provincial, regional, and national level. |
