Membership

Membership to the California County Boards of Education (CCBE) is composed of only member county boards, including those that are both county and district boards. A county board is considered a member board upon commitment of payment in full of the annual CCBE and CSBA dues. CCBE provides its members with resources that help them govern more effectively and productively. Please watch this video that outlines the various benefits of Membership.

Benefits of Membership

Advocacy efforts

CCBE raises public awareness of important public education issues and reviews and takes positions on proposed state and federal legislation that affects county members and county offices of education.

Policy services

CCBE provides members with samples of board policies that have been successfully used by other member boards and which may be adapted to suit the needs of individual boards.

Communications

CCBE provides its members with a County Perspective section in CSBA’s monthly newsletter, and an electronic directory updated each spring containing contact information for CCBE, CSBA and California County Superintendents leadership and county office of education board members and superintendents.

General membership meetings

Held twice per year, General Membership Meetings are open to all CCBE member county board members and superintendents. Member counties will vote on the following year’s executive committee and hear reports from various CCBE leaders and staff.
