Join NSA Ohio

NSA Ohio is the professional association for professional speakers based in Ohio. NSA Ohio members are also members of the National Speakers Association (NSA). Our membership is made up of keynote speakers, trainers and coaches, and those that speak in their current occupation. Our members have a variety of experience and tenure in the profession ranging from decades in business to those that aspire to a professional speaking career.

NSA Ohio provides educational and professional development opportunities AND the opportunity to network with those active in the speaking industry. Within NSA Ohio you are encouraged to learn the business of speaking from those on the same journey as you are on now. Existing members share with new members. We call it the Spirit of Cavett (Cavett Robert the founder of NSA). This spirit focuses on creating a bigger pie with more opportunities for all of us.

Our members talk about the “NSA Family”. This bond goes beyond professional networking to an organization where professionals who speak feel at home. We welcome you to join us.
