CASBO has some wonderful committee service opportunities available this year for anyone seeking to become more involved in member leadership, especially in the arena of advocating on behalf of California schools and students.

If you’ve ever thought about volunteering with CASBO as a member-leader, but have found yourself hesitating, wondering if the effort is worth your time, we can assure you there will be returns on your investment! When you serve in CASBO leadership, you’ll:

  • Become a trusted CASBO expert who helps drive our advocacy programs and efforts
  • Serve as a source of information to your fellow section members and strengthen your connections with member-leaders from other CASBO sections
  • Develop leadership traits and industry knowledge that will pave the way to serving as a presenter at CASBO events and workshops
  • Be able to wrap up all that experience, add it to your resume and watch your career soar!

But that’s not all — once you’ve got some committee member experience under your belt, you may find yourself appointed as assistant chair or chair, giving you even more opportunities to excel. And when that happens, chairs and assistant chairs get a free ride to our Annual Conference, plus an invitation to Executive Leadership Forum, our exclusive leadership development training program for select CASBO member-leaders!

With benefits like these, we don’t think you have anything to lose by serving on a committee. We encourage you to review the openings below and give them serious consideration. We know your time is precious, but these opportunities are a chance to serve as an advocate for sound and effective policy, helping to shape the future of California school business … and who wouldn’t want that on their CV?!

If you have any questions about the appointments process, please contact CASBO Governance Liaison Michelle Neto. We look forward to working with you to advocate for our members and continue the work of evolving education leadership!
