The theme of the 2025 Summit is Promote. Protect. Strengthen. Public Education: The Foundation of Our Democracy! The theme serves as a frame for the focus of the design, engagement, and relevance of the training experiences that you can expect at the Summit. Through competency-based sessions, led by educators, partners, and staff, participants can expect to learn more about the NEA Leadership Competency Framework and how to use the framework to achieve their personal, professional/career, and/or association goals. The framework includes seven, interconnected competency domains that outline the knowledge, skills, and behaviors NEA believes every educator needs. Scroll to the end of this page and download the NEA Leadership Competency Guide.
You must be a member of NEA or a local/state affiliate staff person in order to attend the Summit. For more information about the Summit, email [email protected].
