If Your School Has an FBLA Chapter

Great news! You're just a few steps away from joining a community of like-minded, motivated students. Here’s how to get started:

  • Talk to your school’s FBLA chapter adviser. This is usually a business or CTE teacher at your school.

  • Attend a chapter meeting to learn more about what your chapter does.

  • Pay your membership dues. Your adviser will walk you through the process.

  • Get involved! Choose competitive events, attend conferences, run for office, and make the most of your membership.

  • If you’re unsure who your chapter adviser is, ask your school’s business or marketing teacher or CTE office.

If Your School Does Not Have an FBLA Chapter

No FBLA chapter yet? You can help bring one to your school! Here’s what you can do:

  • Talk to a teacher or staff member who might be interested in serving as your FBLA chapter adviser. A business, finance, marketing, or CTE teacher is a great place to start.

  • Share this website with them, especially the Start a Chapter page for advisers.

  • Reach out to Tennessee FBLA. We’re happy to talk with your teacher and provide information they need to get started.

  • Starting a chapter is a team effort, but it begins with student leaders like you!
