Join Education Pioneers to Support Leadership, Innovation, and Progress in Education

Is 2016 the year we make remarkable progress on behalf of millions of students?

This November, Education Pioneers will bring together leaders from across the education sector for a two-day conference to push past boundaries and make public schools work for all students. Together, we’ll raise our game.

With access to over 500 attendees, including our current Fellows, Alumni, Partners and key influencers in education, I hope you’ll consider the benefits of sponsoring this important event—for your organization, for hundreds of education leaders, and most of all, for the benefit of millions of students.

Varying levels of sponsorship involvement are outlined on page four.

The Pioneers in Action Day on November 15, 2016 will immerse attendees in real-life case studies to help solve problems we face now in education. Attendees will team up with colleagues who do similar work in education to brainstorm, learn from each other, expand their own mindsets, deepen relationships and networks, and foster solution-oriented collaboration.

The Education Pioneers National Conference kicks off the evening of November 15, 2016 and continues with a full day of learning on November 16, 2016. Participants will hear from innovative and thought-provoking leaders from within and outside of the education sector. We are inviting a cross-section of high-profile, trailblazing speakers who will share their leadership stories and inspire our attendees to drive transformation on behalf of students nationwide.

I hope you’ll join us in November!

Warm Regards,

Scott MorganFounder & CEOEducation Pioneers

About EPAt Education Pioneers, we believe achieving excellence for all students requires great teachers and principals, and it also requires great leaders throughout the education system. EP recruits and develops talented professionals from diverse backgrounds, and connects them with important work for K-12 school districts, charter schools, and other education organizations. Our Pioneers work on issues related to student data analysis, external relations, operations, human resources, strategy, and more. They solve problems from outside of the classroom so students and teachers can succeed inside of the classroom.

About the 2016 EP National Conference: Leadership. Innovation. Progress.

PIONEERS IN ACTION DAY

A day with professionals from throughout the EP community to build skills through real, current case studies. This is a chance to collaborate with other leaders in education, and share best practices and problem solve together. We are limiting attendance for this day, and we are structuring many opportunities to meet new colleagues so participants have a chance to build their professional network. Participants will also hear from bold leaders who successfully tried new solutions to improve our communities and schools.

THE NATIONAL CONFERENCE

Over 500 Education Pioneers Fellows, Alumni, Partners, funders and others interested in education leadership will join together to explore leadership challenges, strengthen skills, and build networks.

We have invited a lineup of speakers who advocate passionately about the power of education to equalize, uplift, and motivate. The conference also will offer various breakout sessions throughout the day. Attendees can choose areas of focus and dive deeper into issues we face as we work to transform education so all students have the chance to succeed.

We’re designing this conference to encourage networking and give participants a chance to forge lifelong professional connections throughout the education sector.
