Training

Per the WSPTA Standards of Affiliation agreement, at least one elected officer on each local PTA/PTSA board must attend PTA and the Law, and all other elected officers must attend at least one WSPTA-approved training before this year’s WSPTA convention.

Visit the WSPTA website for a training requirement flyer and tracking spreadsheet.

Training Classes

We talk a lot about training, about being trained, tracking training requirements, and making sure all of your elected officers are trained. How do you know which training is right for you or your board? Here are some possible classes that LWPTSA Council can provide.

• PTA 101 Classes – For first time board members and those looking for refreshers.
• PTA 201 Classes – For those who’ve served on a PTA board and/or are looking for more in-depth classes.

We are always happy to work with PTAs to provide training. Contact your AVP or any member of the Board of Directors to request training.

Roles and Responsibilities of the Board Training @ Online on Zoom

Tickets

May 22 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm

This WSPTA-approved training session will help all PTA/PTSA board members understand the basic responsibilities of their positions—and everyone else’s! We will review the basic elected PTA positions (president, secretary & treasurer), and we’ll also cover topics such as advocacy, fiduciary responsibility, membership and outreach. This training is ideal for anyone new to a local PTA board, as well as any board officer who could benefit from a comprehensive overview of the board’s responsibilities in the PTA realm. This official training will be led by LWPTSA Council, and will count toward your 2025-2026 training requirement.
