Digital Promise is excited to invite you to the 2019 Education Innovation Clusters Convening (#EdClusters19) in Pittsburgh, P.A., September 24-26, hosted in partnership with Remake Learning.
We'll be returning to Pittsburgh -- the site of the original Education Innovation Clusters convening in 2014 -- to reflect on progress and launch the next phase of the #EdClusters network. As always, #EdClusters19 will bring together leading educators, researchers, entrepreneurs, community-builders, policymakers, and funders to:
- Collaborate on shared challenges
- Share tools and practices that support the work of EdClusters -- from advancing equity to embedding research
- Learn about work from the field, especially the Remake Learning Network
- Build connections with innovators from across the country
You can explore past #EdClusters convenings here. Colleagues who aren't on our mailing list can subscribe here to get #EdClusters19 invitation information and updates.
