NBOA Live

Board member sessions — live class drop-ins and prerecorded content — archived here so you can rewatch anytime.

NBOA members join classes for focused 20-minute sessions on specific topics — either live or via prerecorded video — and then take questions. Every session gets archived here. Miss a class? Watch it here. Want to revisit something? It's here.

1

Faculty schedules a session

A board member is matched to a specific class topic — timed to when it comes up in the curriculum.

2

Member drops in or records

They join live or send a prerecorded video. Either way, students get real practitioner perspective on that topic.

3

Q&A happens

Students ask questions — live or asynchronously. The board member answers from experience, not a textbook.

4

Archived here

Every session is added to this library. Rewatch anytime. Search by topic or career track.

📽️ Sessions start Fall 2026. The archive will build up as faculty schedule sessions throughout the year. Check back each semester — new content gets added after every class visit.
