| 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. |
