Two conferences are sponsored by LABE during the year.  The Spring conference is for LABE members, business people, and prospective members and the Fall Conference is held in conjunction with the Louisiana Association of Career and Technical Education.  Attendance at these conferences provides the business educator with current information, ideas, thoughts, and technology in his profession.  It also provides an opportunity for instructors across the state to network and share their ideas and vision for business education.
