Central OEA/NEA has reinstated the ESP advisory committee this year, comprised of ESPs from the Central OEA/NEA area. The committee's objective is to address issues impacting our ESP members and explore ways in which Central can offer support.
One of the committee's initiatives is Virtual ESP Conversations.
The final Virtual ESP Conversations is scheduled for April 23, 2024, at 6:30 pm on Zoom.
Committee members will be present to guide the discussions, ensuring a smooth flow and offering recommendations on Central OEA/NEA resources that may be beneficial.
