GENERAL INFORMATION

When

Missouri NEA's Summer Academy begins at 1:00 p.m. July 23, in Columbia, MO, and concludes at noon on July 25.

In addition, five pre-conference programs—Leading Your Local (for presidents, vice presidents and presidents-elect), Emerging Leaders, Growing Your Local (focused on membership), Higher Education Issues, and Women's Leadership Training—will begin Tuesday, July 22 and continue during the regularly scheduled event. NO ADDITIONAL FEE is required for participation in the pre-conference programs. Participants must pre-register for the pre-conference, regular conference and early bird sessions using the online registration form.

Where

The Holiday Inn Select Executive Center in Columbia, will host the Summer Academy.

Lodging (double occupancy) at the Holiday Inn Select is included in the registration fee or scholarship. MNEA reserves rooms based on conference registration. Roommates are assigned when conferees arrive. Those who wish to have a single room must sign up for a single room on the registration form and will be required to pay a single room surcharge in addition to registration fees. Scholarships do not cover the cost of a single room. Conferees who do not require lodging can register as commuters at a reduced rate.

Who Should Attend?

MNEA’s Summer Academy provides skill-building, networking opportunities and information to assist elected and appointed local association leaders and emerging leaders. The conference offers engaging activities, practical strategies, valuable information and materials local associations can use to build strong locals and support MNEA and NEA programs.

The conference program will benefit local association presidents and other officers, membership coordinators and recruiters, committee chairs, new and experienced Association leaders and emerging leaders.

To get the maximum benefit from the conference, locals are encouraged to bring a team of participants who can work together to help the local association leaders be more effective upon their return home. Locals are particularly encouraged to identify and include among their participants minorities and young members who have never attended an MNEA Summer Academy before.
