- Network with other science leaders from the US and Canada;
- Attend leadership workshops to assist them in their association role;
- Represent their members as a voting delegate;
- Attend focus groups to address national issues and formulate, debate, and adopt resolutions;
- Collaborate with the NSTA elected leaders and staff.
