About TSA
New Mexcio Delegation at 2009 National Conference
LEARNING TO LIVE IN A TECHNICAL WORLD
TSA is a non-profit national student organization devoted to teaching technology education to young people. TSA's mission is to inspire its student members to prepare for careers in a technology-driven economy and culture.
To start a TSA chapter, all that is needed is a motivated technology teacher and an eager group of students. An expensive collection of high-tech equipment is not necessary! Educators who sponsor TSA chapters provide a special opportunity for students.

Competitive Events
Technology Student Association
TSA offers stimulating competitive events and recognition in both technology and leadership arenas. By participating in carefully designed competitions, students learn to do their best, thereby becoming “winners” whether or not they place in competition. Competitive events provide an excellent motivation tool in the academic environment.
The complete guide to competitive events presents rules and regulations, as well as a comprehensive view of each event’s connection to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
Information on ordering complete Competitive Event Guides may be found athttp://www.tsaweb.org
Each Advisor will receive a set of 3 CDs when they affiliate on-line at http://www.tsaweb.org. This set of CDs contains Membership materials for Chapter Management, Competitive Events Guide, and Leadership Lessons.

Join TSA
Welcome to the 2010-2011 school year in TSA! Please review these Membership Affiliation Policies. If you have questions, contact Saundra.castillo@regionix.org
1. All chapters are required to affiliate through the National TSA office using the on-line system. Access the on-line system at http://www.registermychapter.com/tsa/nat
2. There is a required minimum of ten (10) members per chapter. Chapters must have student members to affiliate with TSA.
3. Membership is not processed until all dues (national and state) are paid in full. State dues received at the National TSA office will not be remitted until all dues are paid in full.
4. TSA operates under a unified dues policy, whereby all members must affiliate and pay applicable dues at the local, state, and national level. Individual dues at all levels (high school and middle school) consist of local chapter dues (determined by the chapter), state dues (determined by the state delegation), and national dues (determined by TSA, Inc.).
5. A student may hold membership in only one local chapter and only one state TSA delegation.
6. TSA membership must be affiliated through a local state-registered education district. “Home-schooled” students may become members through an agreement with an affiliated chapter.
7. A written notification of transfer must be sent to the National TSA office if a student has paid individual membership dues and transfers to another chapter/school.
8. Advisors of TSA chapters must be registered state-certified educators working in existing school facilities. It is recommended that a technology education teacher serve as a TSA chapter advisor. However, in cases where there is no such interested teacher, a state-certified educator may be appointed by the school’s principal. The appointed advisor has the same rights and privileges of any advisor as long as s/he maintains the chapter in good standing.
9. A chapter level (middle school or high school) is designated on the affiliation form each year by the advisor. An advisor must notify National TSA in writing if there is a change in chapter level status or the advisor may elect to affiliate a second level chapter later in the school year. If a chapter level is not indicated on the affiliation form, National TSA assigns a chapter level based on the grade levels of the students represented.
10. A school may affiliate more than one chapter provided that the chapters represent different levels, i.e., a middle school level and a high school level may physically exist at one school, but not two middle school levels; separate membership affiliation forms are submitted to the National TSA office; separate registration forms for the national conference are submitted to the National TSA office.
