Suggest a Meeting Venue
We're looking for a more centralized location for our chapter meetings — near the Tampa area. If you know of a potential venue, please let us know.
Part of Something Bigger
As a proud chapter of the National Speakers Association, we're your local gateway to a worldwide speaking community. NSA's national resources — The Vault resource library, the Certified Speaking Professional® (CSP) designation, national membership plans, and the NSA Annual Conference — are separate from your chapter membership. But through NSACF, you gain something just as valuable: face time with accomplished speakers from across the country who visit as guest presenters, relationships that span the globe, and the guidance to make the most of everything NSA has to offer.
