About
The VSBA Affiliate Member Program is a wonderful business opportunity designed to benefit your company and school districts. VSBA uses revenue from the affiliate program to support and expand training opportunities for school board members and school leaders.
Sponsorships are excellent opportunities for your company to be in the spotlight and have exposure to educational decision makers from across the state. Sponsorship or membership in the affiliate program is a great avenue for promotion within the Virginia public school system. Sponsors have the opportunity to have more interaction with conference participants.
