BEWA (Business Educators of Western Australia Inc.) is the voluntarily run professional members' association for business educators in Western Australia. Our members teach business-related subjects across schools throughout the state, and BEWA exists to support, connect and represent them.
BEWA provides a forum for discussion on its Facebook page — an active community where members share ideas, ask questions and keep up to date with what's happening in business education.
BEWA is run by volunteers — practising business educators who give their time to strengthen the profession in Western Australia. We are not a government body or a commercial provider; we are teachers supporting teachers.
At the national level, BEWA is an affiliate of BEA (Business Educators of Australasia Inc.), which represents similar professional teacher associations in all Australian states and territories. This connection keeps Western Australian business educators part of the national conversation.

BEWA supports business educators in Western Australia through three key areas:
Individual, student and institutional membership options that connect you with a statewide network of business educators and keep you informed throughout the year.
Exam papers for ATAR Accounting & Finance (ACF) and Business Management & Enterprise (BME) published in Semester 1 and Semester 2 each year, plus practice EST papers for General ACF and BME.
Professional learning events held throughout the year, including our annual conference — opportunities to network, share practice and hear from experienced educators.
As a member, you become part of a community of business educators who understand your classroom. Institutional members gain access to our teacher written exam resources, event registration, and a voice in the direction of business education in Western Australia.
Whether you're a practising teacher, a pre-service educator or an institution supporting business education, we'd love to hear from you.
