Current News from LIBTA's Executive
Board
September 2009
Dear LIBEC & SCBTA Members,
The following are available through LIBTA:
- Professional Support and Networking
- Semi-annual Membership Meetings
- Student Scholarships
- Student Contests
- Professional Field Trips/Networking
- Annual Spring Meeting and Luncheon Awards
- Contacts with Publishing, Business and Industry Professionals
- BTANYS Discounts
- Updates from NY State Education Dept
- Promote Business Education
- Professional Development Workshops
Please Note:
On Monday, October 6, LIBEC and SCBTA merged and a new
organization was created, Long Island Business Teachers Association. The “official” change
will take place on January 1 due to the fact that it will take
time to create bylaws, a new treasury and a new website.
If you are a 2008-2009 LIBEC member, you are a member automatically
of Long Island BTA. However, if you have not yet joined LIBEC,
just go to www.libec.org and
register.
Both the SCBTA and LIBEC boards are confident that this merger
will allow us to create a stronger organization for Long Island.
It is imperative that Long Island business teachers unite to strengthen
business education, not only on a local level but in New York State.
S. Dianne Elmore, Co-President LIBTA
Karen Poidomani,
Co-President LIBTA
