NRECA Director Training – February 2027

NRECA Director Training is a one-day electric-cooperative governance training event organized by the Alaska Power Association (APA) in Juneau. Scheduled for February 2, 2027, it places director education immediately before APA’s State Legislative Conference, making it part of a broader week of cooperative leadership and policy activity.

When and where

The training is scheduled for Tuesday, February 2, 2027, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Centennial Hall Convention Center, 101 Egan Drive, Juneau, Alaska 99801. APA currently lists it in its training calendar; the published event page does not yet identify the specific NRECA course number, curriculum, instructor, registration fee, or eligibility requirements.

Purpose

The event fits NRECA’s broader approach to director education, which is intended to strengthen the governance capabilities of people serving on electric-cooperative boards. NRECA describes strong board leadership as important to cooperative success, with its director programming emphasizing governance skills and strategies directors can apply at their own cooperatives.

Part of a larger Juneau program

The timing is especially useful for Alaska cooperative leaders because APA’s State Legislative Conference follows on February 3–4 at the same address. APA also schedules its Managers’ Forum on February 2 and Board of Directors meeting on February 4, concentrating training, organizational business, and legislative engagement into the same Juneau trip.

What remains to be announced

As of APA’s current published listing, the 2027 course topic and detailed agenda have not been posted. Previous APA programs show that NRECA director courses can address specific board responsibilities—for example, APA’s 2024 annual meeting offered training on the board’s role in safety—but that does not establish the subject of the February 2027 course. The confirmed details are therefore the February 2 date, 9 a.m.–4 p.m. schedule, and Centennial Hall location.
