May 2018 Update

  1. The invitation to serve as a 2018 CEA Chairperson is open! The role of the chairperson has changed slightly. We will no longer be asking you to introduce the speaker or to hand out evaluations. We will still need you to pick up the session envelope, help the speaker if necessary and record the attendance. The CEA Executive Board will like to offer all of our CEA Chairpersons a $5.00 appreciation gift for your involvement in the CEA. Please sign up to be a 2018 CEA Chairperson.
  2. We are thrilled to welcome back River City Improv on Thursday night. Come with your staff for a night of laughs. The show will be held in the main hall, where the Opening Worship is held. The admission is free!
  3. Great news! Due to popular demand we have opened up a 2nd PBL Workshop. If you were on the waiting list, you can plan on having a spot. If you are interested in joining this great opportunity please email cea@ceateachers.org to reserve your spot. Also, if you are a participant in the PBL Workshop, your lunch will be provided for you.
  4. The 2018 CEA Housing information is below.
  5. The dues for the 2018 CEA convention will be $90.00 per person.

We look forward to seeing YOU on October 25 and 26 at the Century Center in South Bend, IN.
