NAAE monitors governmental affairs affecting agricultural education and assists in developing priorities and strategies to effect federal legislation and appropriations. NAAE also has representatives on several national boards to represent your interests and concerns.
A powerful tool for members to use when trying to build relationships or advocate for ag education, whether on the state or national level. Technical and pedagogical in-service education — we offer more than 70 professional development workshops geared specifically for agricultural educators at our annual convention, as well as webinars on a variety of agricultural education topics. Go to the legislative action center.
Run for a NAAE office, facilitate a community on NAAE's Communities of Practice, or get involved with our National Teach Ag Campaign, just to name a few possibilities. NAAE provides many opportunities to lead the profession.
NAAE takes pride in recognizing excellence in agricultural education as well as individuals and organizations that make outstanding contributions to the profession. Members have the opportunity to apply for state and national recognition or nominate other individuals or organizations for recognition through a variety of programs. See our awards and recognition programs.
Join a community of your peers — members post ideas, have discussions, and share tried-and-true techniques for creating a better ag program. Visit Communities of Practice.
Our national e-newsletter keeps you updated on news and trends in agricultural education, resources, legislative advocacy, and NAAE activities and events. As a member, you are automatically subscribed.
The National Association of Agricultural Educators (NAAE) in cooperation with Purdue University has developed an electronic mail listserv for use by agricultural education teachers, state staff, teacher educators, and others interested in agricultural education. The listserv allows someone to send one message to the listserv and have that message forwarded on to all subscribers to the list. It has capabilities to send text messages and attached files. Subscribe to the listserv.
There is currently a national shortage of agricultural educators, and NAAE has taken the lead in recruiting students to think about a career in agricultural education. Join the Teach Ag Campaign, find resources to help you talk to your students about a career in ag ed, or help your students find a college or university with an ag ed program. Go to the Teach Ag Campaign webpage.
State affiliates of NAAE are typically made up of individual members who can take advantage of the benefits listed above, but in addition, NAAE offers a few services that can be best utilized at the state affiliate level.
In addition to what NAAE does with federal legislation and advocacy, NAAE can provide some assistance in working through state-level legislative issues by consulting with the state association's advocacy committee, working to help place legislative alerts on the NAAE Legislative action center, and more. Contact Jay Jackman, NAAE Executive Director, for details.
To allow state agricultural education association members better access to timely state-level information, NAAE will host a webpage for each state agricultural education's association.
The webpages will be included here, on the state affiliates section of NAAE's website. This program has been started as a way to help states who do not currently have a website. If your state association already has its own website, you do not have to start using the NAAE program. NAAE will still have a link from this page to your state association's website. For complete guidelines, download this document.
