WHAT DRIVES US

Teaching is one of the most important and challenging jobs on the planet. Period.

We believe educators deserve professional development that lives up to the crucial work they are entrusted to do every day.

Yet so much PD misses the mark.

We know from experience that PD can feel almost electric when done well.

We believe that professional development should:

• Be full of high-quality content that is practical and implementable
• Select passionate, knowledgable presenters who are educators and subject-matter experts
• Acknowledge the realities of modern education, and look beyond to see all that is possible!
• Be affordable
• Include flexible options to participate because teachers are busy!
• Be engaging and get neurons firing on all cylinders
• Inspire, re-energize, and reconnect teachers with their calling!

These are the guiding thoughts we have in mind as we put together each conference. We aren’t looking to deliver PD simply; we aim to provide an experience that builds skills and renews your passion and enthusiasm for teaching!

OUR AUDIENCE

Thousands of Pre-K through 12th grader educators from around the world!

OUR FORMAT

The conference is delivered online in a hybrid format, with both pre-recorded sessions and live-streamed sessions & panels.

This gives us the opportunity to develop community, ask & answer questions, and not have to choose between sessions.

Attendees have access to all content and replays for a whole year, giving everyone the time to digest and revisit content on their own schedules.

PAST EVENTS

In our first two years (2020 & 2021), we averaged 4,000 attendees from 24 countries. Our goal was to bring together passionate elementary educators to enjoy four days of practical, actionable, and inspirational professional development.

While we were confident we could do just that, what we didn’t expect was the transformational and soul-lifting experience it turned out to be. Our attendees were blown by the experience too.
