Advisors will login to enter members by going to register.bpa.org This is where you will enter your membership information and create your invoice for dues. Deadline for membership registration is February 15.
Texas BPA will offer a Chapter Affiliation option which will allow chapters to enter their members and utilize Perkins V funding to pay for their membership dues. For information about this option, you can download this Chapter Affliation Guide. As this is a new option we understand that there will be many questions and we will work through them together.
