About Us

The Georgia Business Education Association (GBEA) is an affiliate of the Georgia Association for Career & Technical Education (GACTE), the national Association for Career & Technical Education (ACTE), the National Business Education Association (NBEA) and the Southern Business Education Association (SBEA). 

Working with these organizations, we strive to provide members the opportunity to become part of a collective voice that can influence issues and policies that impact career and business education. As members, teachers can network with each other to gain useful ideas and techniques to utilize in their classroom as well as participate in professional development at the local, state, and national levels.

Effective July 2012, GBEA membership dues must be paid through the ACTE membership application.  We encourage you to become a unified member by joining all of your professional organizations:  ACTE, NBEA, GACTE, and GBEA.
