How BPA Operates
Governing Documents
The Framework Behind the Work
BPA follows a set of core documents that guide how our organization, divisions, and leadership teams work. These ensure structure and clarity for our Board of Trustees, State Association Advisory Council (SAAC), Classroom Educators Advisory Council (CEAC) and National Business Advisory Council (NBAC).
These policies and bylaws also serve our Middle Level, Secondary, Postsecondary, and Alumni Divisions to ensure consistent, fair, and effective procedures across the organization.
