About Super Session 2020

To say the year 2020 has been an unusual one would be the understatement of the century. But unprecedented times call for innovation and opportunity. We can look at this year as one of struggle, or as an opportunity for renewal.

Many of you had to navigate a unique new world with new challenges but CSEA is no stranger to change and adversity. The same values and the same fundamentals that held us steady in the past remain tried and true today.

Super Session – Virtual Edition

New challenges require innovation and new ways to get the job done. Super Session is another opportunity to introduce change as we move into a virtual format using Zoom.

Appreciation and Renewal

This year’s Super Session focuses on Appreciation and Renewal. Appreciation for the hard work Regional Representatives, Committee Members, RUEB, and the Board of Directors have done to continue to support our members across the state during these trying times. Renewal because we trust that going back and holding on to our fundamentals is at the heart of a sustainable future.

Showing Some Love

We cannot thank you enough for all the work you do for association members and peers. But we do want you to know you are appreciated. This year we have 60 members receiving service awards. We encourage you to join us celebrating their dedication.

In addition to the awards, during the day we will continue to show tokens of appreciation. You will have several chances to win gift cards at different times throughout the day to reward your participation.

And the surprises do not end there. After the event all attendees will receive a surprise gift in the mail.

Dress-Code

We expect that everyone will attend with Cameras ON so we all can appreciate your wonderful smiles and you can participate in our virtual activities. This is also an opportunity for you to showcase your favorite CSEA attire or your favorite business casual look.

Keep in mind we may take snapshots of the groups on screen, so please be mindful of your background.

One more gift

We have created Super Session Virtual Backgrounds for you to use during Super Session. To set up your virtual background, follow the instructions here.
