LEADERSHIP EVENTS

The Edvance Leadership Conference is a one-day event that brings leadership teams together from across the network to hear from a visionary speaker.

Edvance Regional Leadership Cohorts meet regularly throughout the year, either virtually or in person. Each cohort is mentored by an experienced school leader from within the region.

The Edvance Leadership Retreat is a two-day event, giving an opportunity for leaders to step away from the day-to-day operations of their school and focus on a high-level topic together, with some renewal and inspiration along the day.

Edvance Working Groups bring together Edvance affiliate educators to collaborate and support each other in accomplishing a focus or task that's important to their school. Topics include curriculum design, leadership, Teaching for Transformation, and more. The working groups meet virtually each month from November to April.
