Public Awareness Spreading the word that EAs are the tax professionals of choice—communicating the value that enrolled agents bring to clients– is a primary association goal. We’ve branded enrolled agents as “America’s Tax Experts®.” 11

Public Awareness Educating America The NAEA “Educating America” initiative has been developed to raise awareness of the EA career option among community college students across the country. We’ve partnered with Gleim Publications to develop a course that members and staff are working to get into college curriculums. 12

In addition to an aggressive press release program, NAEA: Promotes EAs through national sponsorship on NPR. Runs videos on American Airlines explaining the qualifications an EA brings. Serves as an expert resource for national and local media. 13
