Conference Theme and Focus Areas
Justify NQEC to your school and district leaders.
Professional development budgets have been reduced over the past few years. Although financial problems are receding in some industries, professional development for educators is slow to come back and the students are suffering. While conference attendance can be difficult to justify, here are the reasons you need to attend the 2012 National Quality Education Conference:
- You will come home with the framework for improving your schools. Through the Education Team Excellence Recognition Award you will be able to download the outlines of very powerful programs that made measurable impacts in schools around the world.You can put that information to work in your classrooms immediately.
- Conference leaders and keynote speakers are available to you. NQEC speakers usually stay for the entire conference and are always available for questions and discussion after their presentations.
- Network. Rub elbows with individuals who have implemented cost savings and quality improvement in their schools and districts. Talk to them. Learn from them.
- Implement. After the conference, implement one quality tool you learned. Document the savings and you will never have an issue proving the value of NQEC again.
- Do–It–Yourself and eliminate consultant fees. Learn the quality tools that fix your school’s challenges and build an ‘in-house’ team to tackle issues all around your district.
