"Of all the things I have done over the years to promote technology education, becoming a Technology Student Association advisor by far has had the most impact on my students and my professional development. I highly recommend being an active part of a student organization that is dedicated to furthering the principles of leadership, teamwork, and responsibility."

“The experiences I gained as a TSA member, alumni, and advisor have afforded me with great opportunities in my adult life. I credit all my success as a school administrator and CRC Chairperson back to my involvement as a TSA Member.”

TSA Curricular Resources Committee Chair and former National TSA President and TSA Chapter Advisor

"As a classroom teacher, I don’t “teach TSA.” But, as a member of the CRC and a classroom teacher, I know that the TSA events like Dragster Design and Transportation Modeling can be used as imagination- grabbing activities that relate to the Standards for Technological Literacy. I know that TSA chapter activities are a strong recruiting tool in high school for technology education classes. I’ve seen student numbers increase, as well as the quality of student enrolled in the class."

"Attending national TSA conferences has allowed me to demonstrate and test my technological skills in a fun, competitive situation."
Peter Andrews

2009-2010 National TSA President

"Involvement with TSA helps high school students make informed choices about technological career options through dynamic, problem solving activities in the classroom, development of leadership skills and participation in competitive events. The TSA State Conference is the highlight of the school year for students enrolled in technology education courses in New Jersey. It provides them with the unique opportunity of competing with other students from around the state."
Alison M. Goeke
The College of New Jersey
TSA State Advisor

"TSA is a great organization to foster the soft skills and leadership capabilities of technology education students. Our youth are capable of accomplishing great things and count on their TSA advisors to provide them with the challenge to excel. TSA students have common objectives and interests. Each is learning about his or her role in our technological society. TSA activities can have a tremendous effect upon the attitudes, growth, and development of each member."

"I've witnessed at regional, state, and national conferences, students interacting amongst themselves in a positive and mutually beneficial manner. To be able to compete and yet encourage and respect each other, is a lifetime skill that I believe they are gleaning from their TSA experience. The global awareness of belonging to a student organization that unites individuals from such vastly varied backgrounds and geographic locales can only serve to widen their horizons for the future."
Pixie Wescott
TSA Parent
Manteo Middle School TSA, North Carolina

"I think TSA gave me and other students the chance to do something that made them feel proud. At the time, TSA was the club to join and everyone wanted to be a member, it had the largest enrollment for any club in the whole school. Once you got there, you were given the tools to do things that you may have never thought possible. Coach Price (Steve Price, TSA Advisor) had a way of finding out your talents and finding something for you to do as part of the team."
