AEP Press RoomNSSEA Signs on to Government Relations Partnership with AEPLogan Township, NJ – January 3, 2007– In an effort to increase the ability to monitor and communicate to the membership government policies, legislative/regulatory issues, and funding opportunities that impact the education marketplace, the NSSEA Board of Directors recently approved a formal government relations partnership with The Association of Educational Publishers (AEP). The new partnership is an expansion of the existing relationship between AEP and NSSEA. Both organizations have a similar stake in the developing federal education policy and believe their members need a better understanding of how they can contribute to shaping that policy. As part of the partnership, NSSEA will once again sponsor the Legislative Day held in conjunction with the AEP Summit in Washington, DC in June 2007. “NSSEA is an important participant in our country’s educational system, and the organization looks forward to this partnership with AEP to advocate our positions and assist with shaping and improving education and the economic markets that serve education,” said NSSEA Legislative Chair Bill Singhaus. “We value this partnership with the NSSEA. By standing together, both organizations can have a stronger voice in shaping the issues that are important to our industry,” added Charlene Gaynor, CEO of AEP.
