ABOUT OUR
VIRTUAL CONFERENCE
For 20 years, NACSA has provided authorizers with the tools, expertise, and know-how to ensure quality and equity in public schools.
This year’s Leadership Conference will continue to support your growth as a professional in authorizing—from learning how to partner with communities to ensuring equitable education opportunities for all students.
We’re committed to evolving and pushing ourselves towards a more just future. Join us to build a better future for students, families, and communities.
Reasons to go
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
This is the only conference that provides you with professional development, skill building, and knowledge needed in authorizing. Let’s work together to ensure schools are more equitable and community-centered.
SPEAKER EXPERTISE
We bring the top experts to share their experience and guidance on top education issues and answer your questions. Past speakers have included Sharif El-Mekki, Raymond J. Ankrum, Sr., Chris Stewart, and Dr. Charles Cole III.
NETWORKING
Conference is a time for learning, sharing, and growing —it’s also an opportunity to expand and strengthen your network of experienced authorizers through virtual networking forums.
VIRTUAL FORMAT
The added benefit of this year’s virtual format means attendees will be able to access to the sessions and resources long after conference has ended.
SESSIONS
As we face the dual pandemics of COVID-19 and racism, we need to recognize the moment of time we are in and make the choice to do better, to think more broadly, and to acknowledge the power we have as authorizers.
Each participant will be able to find an array of sessions that will deepen your understanding of your work and how we can all meet this moment and better support students, families, and communities.
Our virtual format will invite attendees to join keynotes, expert panels, and small group workshops so you can put learning into action.
KEYNOTE SPEAKERS
Join us as we #RadicallyImagine a new future of education with a live podcast with 8 Black Hands for this year’s plenary at #NACSAcon Virtual. Featuring Sharif El-Mekki, Raymond J. Ankrum, Sr., Chris Stewart and Dr. Charles Cole III have the often-difficult conversations needed surrounding our educational system while also advocating for educational equity and social justice.
Let’s learn and push forward together as we all stand up to fight for equity and justice. You won’t want to miss the inspirational lessons and ideas from this year’s live podcast.
Stay tuned, our keynote speakers will be announced soon!
