Member Web Services
It would be hard not to notice the impact the Internet has had on our daily lives, both personally and professionally. Once a venue for simply receiving information statically presented to us on a web page, the Internet is now a dynamic place where we go to share information about ourselves—our histories, our interests, our beliefs, our knowledge and our experience. We go there to exchange and debate ideas, ask and answer questions, and to connect almost continuously with our friends, family, colleagues and business partners. read more »
Mentoring
The Mentor Program is designed to provide technical assistance and advice to first and second year School Business Officials relative to the myriad duties and responsibilities that are inherent within every School Business Official’s job description. This is accomplished by pairing new Business Officials on a one-to-one basis with experienced veterans. The Mentor and new Business Official then agree to meet periodically throughout the school year in order to discuss particular job-related problems.
