Hi all,
Here is the Sheboygan EA Summer Organizer team that is embarking on a 10-week project aimed at growing membership. After spending two days training in Milwaukee with groups from Appleton, Racine, Kenosha, Green Bay, Fond du Lac, D.C. Everest, and Eau Claire, this team is raring to go! If you are a Sheboygan teacher, you can look forward to a call from one of us - we are looking forward to meeting everyone and we know we'll have a lot of great conversations this summer!

Featured in next week's edition of "The Connection" will be the Appleton team!

Peace,
--Kathy Rohde
Regional Director

WEAC's National Board Jump Start Training is July 24-26 at UW-Eau Claire

Jump Start is an intensive seminar geared for teachers pursuing National Board Certification who intend to submit components in the 2017-18 school year. This professional development opportunity has been designed by NEA members who are Nationally Board Certified Teachers (NBCTs). Over the years these union members have worked with thousands of candidates across the country assisting with component entry.

In the Jump Start seminar you will be provided with important information about the certification process, time to examine component and assessment center requirements, the opportunity to plan how to meet requirements as well as time to collaborate and gather resources needed to pursue your certification. All of this in a supportive, constructive, and collegiate environment. Find out more and register now.
