Oregon Business Education Association
Letter from the President
Hello! I hope this message finds you enjoying the final days of school and thinking of ways to unwind and enjoy a little you time this summer. Your energy, passion, and dedication are what make business educators truly special.
At the heart of the OBEA mission lies the power of connection. By networking at conferences and on social media, we not only expand our professional networks but also foster meaningful relationships that enrich our careers and bring new and engaging ideas for teaching and learning to our classrooms. The bonds within our community are invaluable assets that fuel our success and push Business Education forward in Oregon.
At the WBEA conference in Eugene in February, OBEA was thrilled with the opportunities for interaction and networking. We can’t wait to see the momentum that conference will bring for business education across the state. To continue the connections and learning, I am thrilled to invite you to the upcoming OBEA Fall Conference on October 10-11. The conference promises to be an action-packed event filled with insightful sessions, engaging workshops, and plenty of laughter and fun. I encourage each of you to mark your calendars and join us in Lebanon, Oregon at Boulder Falls Inn!
As we dive into another year of learning, growing, and connecting, let's continue to encourage, support, and celebrate each other. One way you can celebrate your fellow educators or supporters of business education is by nominating them for an OBEA award. Please complete this form if you feel there is someone who deserves the recognition, so we can all celebrate their contribution to business education in Oregon.
Thank you for being the amazing educators that you are. Here's to an incredible year ahead!
Kim Bezdek
OBEA President
