Our Keynote speaker is Dr. Liz Gulliford from the Jubilee Centre at the University of Birmingham in England. This year's theme will be Caught, Taught, Sought with convening to include keynote addresses, breakout sessions, problems of practice, and character-based research. Participants will choose from a varied selection of breakout sessions to attend. A networking session will provide the opportunity for attendees to connect with other school leaders pursuing similar goals.
There is a limited block of rooms reserved at the Hilton Pensacola Beach Resort for this convening. In addition to registering for the conference, you need to make a hotel reservation.
