Big Change! NBEA 2025 Annual Conference Dates Move To Fall
NBEA’s 2025 conference will be held in Cincinnati, Ohio, October 21 – 24, 2025. After a survey of past NBEA convention attendees, approximately 80% said the meeting dates should change to the Fall. In addition, the same number said such a change would result in higher attendance. Cincinnati was chosen for several data-driven reasons: 1. It has outstanding, cost-effective venues, and 2. It is within driving distance of many members, 3. The Ohio Business Education Association is an Affiliate-Plus state committed to supporting NBEA. NBEA Executive Director Joe McClary said, “Kudos to the board for making data-driven decisions. Changing a tradition in place for decades is difficult, but our members spoke, and the board listened. We are optimistic this change will improve service for those wanting to attend such an outstanding event.”

Mississippi Business Education Association Dissolves
After years of declining membership, the Mississippi Business Education Association announced on its Facebook page on August 1 that it would dissolve.
NBEA Executive Director Joe McClary said, "State associations are pressed harder than ever to provide a unique value proposition which is increasingly difficult. Mississippi's position is not unique. State associations must focus on unique offerings only the state association can provide. If the value proposition unique to the state can't be maintained by an organization, it is typically best to dissolve and allow members to move on to new solutions to meet their professional development needs. Mississippi business educators can fill the gap left by MBEA by joining NBEA and enjoying networking and events to meet professional development needs."
NBEA compiles resources for state association leaders in the new Affiliate Plus area of the NBEA community. Any member, regardless of whether they are from an affiliate plus state, can be part of this community to get valuable ideas on improving their state association.

Thank You to NBEA Dues Paying Members
In life, you typically get what you pay for. Your professional association doesn't work much differently. NBEA serves the business education community with the support of its dues-paying members with "skin" in the business education game. Without their annual commitments, NBEA would not exist to advocate, provide insurance, standards, networking, professional development, lesson plans, publications, a research library, and more. NBEA has made efforts to provide additional free opportunities for those that cannot afford membership, but the backbone of your association continues to be the dues-paying member. Thanks to all, 2,200 plus of you have strongly supported YOUR profession. Not a member? Join or renew!
