"Message from the Editor"

    As we enter 2026, there are a few matters that need to be mentioned:

  First, remember to renew your dues before the 10-day grace period ends and your membership is suspended.

   Second, just a reminder, that beginning this year, we will be enforcing the requirement that all purchase orders must be received by the NJNEOA within 7-business days of registering.

   Third, there will numerous training events each month throughout 2026. It is imperative that you check our website often to ensure that you are aware of all the available opportunities. As an example, there are 4-dates during March that aren’t confirmed as of this date, and won’t be announced until early February. So, check frequently to make sure it doesn’t fill up before you can register.

  Fourth, the “Early Bird” registrations for the 2026 Conference expire on January 31st. So if you plan on attending, register before then.

  Fifth we have begun accepting nominations/submissions for the 2026 Awards Program in Atlantic City on May 21st. All submissions must be received prior to March 1st. That means you have 2-months remaining to get them in. Please don’t delay.

  Lastly, I want to thank each one of our members and their agencies that support us every year. We are only able to provide the free and/or low cost training because of your dues.

  Keep safe & thank you.
