Stress Management for Business Educators an NBEA LinkUp Networking Event

Where are you on the curve?

Thursday, September 17, 2020 4 p.m. ET (3 CT, 2 MT, 1 PT) Note time change

Teaching can provide plenty of challenging situations that cause stress. Add COVID or other issues to the mix and it can seem overwhelming. NBEA's next virtual networking session called "LinkUp" will focus on stress management techniques for business educators. The facilitator will share time tested ways for managing stress and you will have the opportunity to network with your peers to hear how they maintain focus and keep stress manageable. Do you already have some time tested methods for managing your stress? If so, come and enjoy the privilege of sharing. This networking session will be highly interactive and an opportunity to connect with old and new friends.

Five Ways to Prepare for a Remote School Year

Teaching Remotely - In theory, it may be better to have students in physical classrooms. The reality is this school year likely will combine physical and remote learning or virtual classes in some form — for the entire year or part of the year, or for the entire student body or only higher-risk students.
