Is it expensive?

Joining NSEA-Aspiring Educators is just $40 a year (plus local dues, if applicable) - and that covers liability insurance while you're student teaching, plus tons of the same perks active teachers get.  A portion of the dues are refunded to NSEA - Aspiring Educators members with their first year of membership in the NSEA when they begin their professional career.

Are there local chapters?

Yes!  Chapters of NSEA-Aspiring Educators are established at colleges and universities across Nebraska, collectively representing hundreds of members statewide!

What's the NEA EEL Program?

It's professional liability insurance that's included with your NEA membership - basically, extra protection while you're student teaching so you're covered if something unexpected happens on the job.
