First, what is an ESA?

In short, education service agencies (ESA) significantly contribute to educating our nation's students in grades Pre-kindergarten through grade 12 and beyond!

An ESA provides services such as staffing, professional development, and other resources that public and private schools need to deliver a quality education within the Pre-K through grade 12 educational systems within their region. Some ESAs collaborate at the college level. They all work with professionals in all areas of education to provide high quality connections and quality services for the educational institutions they serve.

Needless to say, ESAs have the pulse on education!

Look to AESA for national reach, that gets down to the local level!

AESA is the only national professional organization for ESAs and serves all the staff members of its member-ESAs. We are the Association of Educational Service Agencies.

We are a hub for our members. AESA provides professional development, federal legislative advocacy, and professional networks that connect ESAs to each other and to the businesses that can support their work.

AESA reaches:

Over 470 organizations

of all ESAs nationwide.

Representing:

11,700 (79%) of the public school districts;

22,710 (83%) of the private schools;

2,160,955 (79%) certified teachers and;

2,018,888 (80%) non-certified school employees, and;

40,732,954 (80%) public and private school students.

This means that the ESAs know and work regularly with their local educational agencies (LEAs). They are a central touch point to a broad group of LEAs.

AESA has strong reputation in education.

One of the most critical responsibilities of AESA is to ensure that ESAs and schools have access to the best educational products and services available. If your organization becomes a business partner, sponsor, or exhibitor, you gain face-to-face access to many decision makers who are members of AESA.

Recognized nationally, AESA is the only professional organization for ESAs. Led by an Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer, together with the Executive Council and a team of support staff, they provide vision, leadership and fiscal responsibility to guide AESA into successful and sustainable future.

AESA’s highly engaged Executive Council consists of successful CEOs, who lead ESAs from around the country. Together, the Executive Council and AESA leadership team are dedicated to the success of sustaining and advancing AESA’s reputation as a highly valued professional organization.

AESA provides a connection to ESAs and the school districts they serve.

ESA leaders are looking for solutions. The staff of ESAs are in face-to-face contact with nearly every superintendent and key staff of local school districts on a weekly or monthly basis. As a result, ESA leaders and staff members are acutely aware of the needs and problems faced by local public school districts, as well as private and parochial schools in their area, and other youth service agencies.

Business partners often have the solutions ESAs are seeking! A business affiliation with AESA puts your business’ name and its services in front of the decision-makers who understand the education landscape.
