01What it does

What American Bridge Teachers Association does

Mission

The mission of the American Bridge Teachers Association is to help those who teach bridge to do it better, more effectively, more knowledgeably, and more professionally. To encourage the highest standards of conduct and ethics by its members; to promote and develop information for bridge teaching; and to carry out such other activities as are consistent with the purposes of the abta, and its certificate of incorporation.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

Program

  1. The American Bridge Teachers Association was created in 1957. The purpose of the organization today is to promote and protect the standards of bridge teaching and its practitioners, establish a code of ethics and schedule of minimum fees in the profession, insofar as is practicable, and to make known in the public and professional interest in any information in the bridge teaching profession. This purpose is completed through various options. Our members enjoy a quarterly magazine which is designed to support abta members with articles that focus on topics relevant to bridge teachers from marketing and business development to teaching strategies and book reviews. Networking opportunities include our annual convention where you can learn new skills, receive lesson plans from top teachers, hear expert players first hand on their thoughts and bridge treatments; and, receive advance notice and special discounts on new books. Each convention offers something new and exciting for teachers as well as planned social outings that enhance networking opportunities. An abta membership offers the ability to enhance your resume and to qualify and apply for the abta master teacher designation,…

The program described on its FY2023 Form 990-EZ.

Each line starts at 100 in 2024, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2024, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.

How it's funded, over time

Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
