The New Jersey School Boards Association will host a mandated training day on Saturday, Sept. 23, 2023. This program will be offered both virtually and in-person. Training sessions for Governance I, II and IV will be available.

Governance I is designed for new board members in the first year of their first term. Governance II is centered around finance and is for members in the first term of their second full year of service. Governance IV provides a legal update and is for re-elected/reappointed board members in the first year of any succeeding term.

This free opportunity will not only allow members to complete their mandated training requirements, but to share knowledge and connect with fellow school leaders working toward the same goals. For Governance I trainees, a complimentary lunch will be available.
