FASBO & FSFOA Joint Conference
We are excited to be working closely with the Florida School Finance Officers Association (FSFOA) on preparing for a "super" fall conference. Both associations are looking forward to having our first joint conference in several years. This conference will be held in Jacksonville from November 4-6, 2024 at the Hyatt Regency downtown.
While we are working hard to complete the agenda, your ideas for session topics are still encouraged. We’d love for you to share with us what you would like to learn more about.
Please continue to watch www.fasbo.org for updated agendas or to apply for a scholarship. The scholarships are limited so apply for one today. This will be a conference you will not want to miss.
