"Message from the Editor"

    2027 is bringing about change to the NJNEOA.

  We are looking to expand our Board of Directors so that we can provide more Free and low-cost training throughout the various regions of the state.

   We are also raising our yearly dues for 2027 to $50.00 a year and $125.00 for a three-year membership. An NJNEOA membership entitles you to a minimum of three free seminars a year, as well as the Conference, if you register early. Members also receive a discounted rate for any of our “Special Seminars” that require some amount of payment, such as “NCET”, “Advanced NCET”, and any of the other special trainings. So, make sure that you renew your dues before January 1st and take advantage of the current membership rate prior to the increase taking effect.

   For the past three-years we have offered a free conference shirt to those that registered early. Based upon the individual’s registrations, the shirts are ordered and paid for by the NJNEOA prior to the conference. Unfortunately, many members and non-members register for the free shirt, then don’t attend the conference. Since members are free, and because the non-members check that payment will be made with a purchase order, which we never receive, we are often stuck with numerous shirts that we wasted money on. We will require a $10 refundable deposit from all members at the time of registration, which will be returned during the conference when the arrive. Non-members will be required to pay at the time of registration, if they select a shirt. No purchase orders will be accepted if a shirt is ordered.

  Other than those changes, we will continue to offer many training seminars throughout the year, and as always, we appreciate any suggestions from you if there are topics that you would like to see.

  Members, once again, I thank you for your support.

  Keep safe & thank you.
