Coronavirus Impact on AACTE Events
At AACTE, we continue to monitor the rapidly changing situation related to the spread of COVID-19. We understand that concerns for health, safety, and the impact on meeting attendance, among other issues, are affecting our members.
Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to hold the event over its original dates. After careful consideration, AACTE has decided to transform the 2020 Washington Week conference into its inaugural virtual event. The in-person meeting has been canceled due to our concern about the health, well-being, and safety of our attendees and travel restrictions during this time. We are excited to bring a virtual conference that will center on the same education and connections attendees experience at AACTE face-to-face meetings.
State Leaders Institute – AACTE and the Association of Teacher Educators (ATE) state leaders will focus on capacity building and augmenting their chapter’s impact through leadership development.
Holmes Summer Policy Institute – AACTE Holmes Program students will learn to advocate for their profession by participating in interactive policy discussions and briefings.
Holmes Advanced Policy Course – AACTE Holmes Scholars who have participated in a previous Holmes Policy Institute or are in the final year of their doctoral program will explore policy and advocacy principles and address current events that focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion in education.
Day on the Hill – AACTE members, nonmembers, students, Holmes Scholars, and PK-12 partners will engage in advocacy training and virtual visits to congressional offices.
Curious about AACTE’s Day on the Hill? View this webinar that shares why Day on the Hill is worth attending and how to prepare to come to Washington, DC and advocate in support of the profession. This webinar is led by AACTE members and members of the AACTE Standing Committee on Government Relations and Advocacy.
