Why Attend?

Build the Future

The traditional factory model is out-of-date and may never have been humanistically designed. Build new models by planning each attainable step to fit the present realities and make your role and institution competitive.

Harness AI

AI is not just for teaching and learning, but the administration of entire institutions. Find out how to envision and build your Omni-AI Core while transforming personalization at all levels of your operation.

Learn to be Super-Human

Are you using AI effectively? What is the main human thinking algorithm? Why were the Gardner Nine Human Intelligences revised to align with new science? Learn how balancing AI means we need to learn more about being human.

Form Leagues

We live in a networked society but our institutions and even classrooms are largely insular and siloed domains of teaching and learning. Explore the future of matrixed teaching, matrixed resource sharing for efficiency and matrixed geographically-dispersed learning. You share and compete teams of learners in sports leagues and academic conferences – now it’s time to use those lines of camaraderie through sharing technologies to do more.

Craft Your Edtech Stack

Omni-AI means the coming together of the enterprise mind – what’s your right mix of all your apps and systems, staff roles and professional development?
