Sessions & Speakers
This year's conference will focus around four core tracks: EdTech, Teacher Sustainability, Policy Innovation, and SEL / Culturally Responsive Education. Within each track, there are two designated sessions. Conference attendees are free to attend both sessions within a track or mix and match with other sessions they find compelling.
