T+L is the premier technology and learning conference for district leadership teams.   Don’t miss this opportunity to work with and hear from some of the most innovative education leaders nationally and internationally, learn best practices from fellow school districts, and network with your colleagues.  T+L, presented by the National School Boards Association’s Technology Leadership Network  (TLN), will be held in Denver this fall from October 28 - 30 and will focus on these critical issues:

• Tools for Engagement
• Technology & the Law
• Professional Development
• Leadership for Innovation
• 1:1 - Next Steps
• Preparing Tomorrow’s Workforce with S.T.E.M.
• Mission Critical IT Management

As the face of education changes, take a leadership role and ensure that your students are traveling down the path to success and a better tomorrow.  T+L offers multiple opportunities for learning immersion: workshop sessions, site visits, field trips, exhibits, roundtable discussions, and networking opportunities for every member of your district team.  The conference includes:

• Interactive district-led sessions with proven strategies for integrating technology in your district -with a limited budget;
• In-depth workshops and “mini-academies” to delve deep on special topics and pick-up implementation tips;
• Field trips and site visits to see practical, real-world applications of new technologies;
• Small group roundtables where you can explore new ideas and concerns and network with colleagues from across the country;
• Inspirational speakers to give you fresh perspectives on the future of education technology; and
• Two full days of exhibits where you can explore the latest products in the field.

Team members from Merced Union District (California) attended last year and said:

• “T+L convinced me that we need to truly change the current way we try to educate young people. But more importantly, it gave me insight into how to make that change.” –Sandy Braa, Director of Technology
• “At T+L I gained critical information and “in-the-trenches” tactics from expert speakers.” – George Sziraki, Assistant Superintendent
• “We don’t stop needing to find better ideas and better ways to improve student learning just because the budget is tight; quality training is always an investment and never an expense - T+L is definitely quality training.” –Tim O’Neill, Board Member

This fall return to your district with new ideas, innovative approaches to current challenges, and a vision for change!  T+L is the place where ideas are born and change happens.  Be there!
