Have you renewed your IBEA membership for the 2025-2026 school year yet?
Membership year runs July 1st-June 30th, so make sure you renew each year to stay an active member of IBEA and take advantage of the upcoming benefits of our organization, and networking with fellow Idaho Business Educators and industry professionals.
The WBEA is Coming to Idaho!
We are thrilled to announce that the Western Business Education Association 2027 Conference is coming to Boise—replacing our annual fall conference in Sun Valley!
While the charm of Sun Valley will always be treasured, this year we’re trading it in for Boise’s stunning Greenbelt, beautiful foothills, and energizing downtown atmosphere.
The conference will be held at The Grove Hotel from Thursday, February 25th, through Saturday, February 27, 2027. This premier downtown venue offers upscale accommodations and convenient access to Boise’s vibrant urban core—an ideal setting for connection, collaboration, and the high‑quality professional development you've come to know from IBEA.
A special note for our members:
Because BPA SLC will take place on Monday, we encourage teacher-BPA Advisors to start thinking outside the box to make attendance at WBEA possible. Consider creative solutions—such as arranging for chaperones to travel into town with students—so you can still join us for this exceptional regional event without interrupting your state-level responsibilities.
To help you make the most of your visit, we'll be creating helpful hyperlinks highlighting attractions and experiences near the hotel, titled “Boise at Your Doorstep!”
We can’t wait to see everyone in Boise!
