Our seventh year of bringing profound educational influencers to the forefront of panel discussions and workshops will be an event that all educators must experience.

In this post-pandemic environment, educators have faced unrelenting demands for resilience with few strategies offered in the field. The common theme for the seventh annual conference is living in a solution-oriented mindset! Join the educational experts and hundreds of practitioners to discuss rising beyond the pandemic disruption toward community healing and reconstructing academic excellence.

For your convenience, this conference will be held online and in person.
