SWOEA conducts two representative assemblies each year. The Fall session defines goals and acts on legislative items. The Spring sessions adopts the annual budget, holds an election, acts on resolutions, and receives committee and commission reports. Both sessions address general business concerns. Locally elected OEA delegates/alternates serve as delegates to the SWOEA Representative Assembly. SWOEA representation is based on one per fifty members or fraction thereof.
SWOEA is divided into fifteen zones. Each zone elects one representative to the SWOEA Executive Committee. It is the responsibility of each zone representative to carry local concerns to the district and to keep local associations informed about district actions. The SWOEA Executive Committee implements policies of the Representative Assembly and establishes policies for the organization between Representative Assemblies.
SWOEA is divided into five electoral units for representation on the OEA Executive Committee. Each representative may be elected to two three-year terms by a majority of the votes of the delegates from the unit. The election is held at the spring SWOEA Representative Assembly. It is the responsibility of OEA Executive Committee members to provide two-way communication between the state and local associations. (The OEA Executive Committee meets monthly and establishes policy for the state organization between representative assemblies.)
