President’s Message
by FBLA National President José Espinel
Members and advisers,
I precede my first message to you with some well-deserved praise.
Congratulations to all of our national winners and competitors at the 2015 National Leadership
Conference in Chicago, Illinois! Your personal endeavors and the support of our wonderful advisers,
resulted in our highest attendance at an NLC yet: a number upwards of 11,000.
This is not just a statistic, this is a momentous accomplishment for our organization, and for business
education in the United States and abroad.
Each member who endeavors to compete and achieve; who expands his or her education in the hopes
of a prosperous future; who sacrifices time, talent, and energy to teach business skills to others, is directly
contributing to the continuance of the economic liberties and stability that allow FBLA to exist today.
I am a first-generation American, a believer in the marriage of business and education, and, most
importantly, a member of FBLA, who like many of you, has reaped the immense benefits of the programs
we provide.
To build upon the successes of our past programs and expand in exciting new directions, your national
officer team has developed an ambitious program of work that offers unique opportunities for you to
advance your education and network with our 250,000+ members.
I urge you to take advantage of all programs we offer (competitive events, BAA, and CSA to name a few),
and I challenge you to invite your friends to join us as we begin this new year.
Together, we can connect to provide all who seek to advance their business education a means by which
to do so.

Use BAA to Earn Member Recognition
by FBLA National Treasurer Ashtyn Rottinghaus
Are you looking for ways to get recognized for
the many local, state, and national FBLA activities
for which chapter members participate? Or are
you looking for a way for chapter members to
highlight their FBLA involvement? Try the Business
Achievement Awards (BAA)!
By completing the four levels of BAA, you can
incorporate the words from the FBLA crest—
Service, Education, and Progress—to highlight
your achievements.
The BAA levels are: Future, Business, Leader, and
America. You must complete each one before
you advance to the next. Each level requires an
increasing amount of time, commitment, and
experience. Certain activities are required for you
to complete each level, while other activities are
optional.
Finding information on BAA is not difficult. Visit
go.fbla.org/BAA for the online BAA program.
Your local chapter adviser will need to set up
a password for you and provide your chapter
number so you can log in and start your quest to
achieve the Future Level.
The four levels help members broaden their
knowledge of FBLA, their community, and personal
business skills. Help yourself and more of your
members get recognized for FBLA involvement by
participating and spreading the word about the
BAA.
17
The Future Level focuses on
local chapter involvement and
introduction to community service
activities. You will receive a black and
gold pin from your FBLA adviser at a
local ceremony or event once your
Future Level has been completed, submitted, and
approved.
The Business Level focuses on
local and state participation within
your chapter, you as an individual
member, and your community
involvement. Once you complete the
Business Level, you will be awarded
a white and gold pin from your FBLA adviser.
The Leader Level goes more in depth
with advanced business skills and
your involvement at local, state, and
national levels. Once you complete
the Leader Level, you will be
awarded a blue and gold pin at the state level.
The America Level is the highest
BAA level that can be achieved.
This prestigious award is given to
dedicated members who complete
the requirements focusing on total
association leadership, business
skills, and involvement in the community.
Although this level takes a great deal of time to
complete, you will be awarded a red and gold pin
at the National Leadership Conference.
If you enjoy participating and would like to get
involved with more national programs, check
out the FBLA-PBL website and see what else your
chapter can do to get recognized!
Congratulations to the 2014–15 Business Achievement Awards (BAA)

revision, this challenge is iPad compatible, has updated financial information, and features new variations.
There will be two rounds held via the Internet during the school year.

• February 1, 2016 (10:00 a.m. EST)—February 26, 2016 (5:00 p.m. EST)
