Exciting professional development that works!

Discover Edcamp, a model of professional development that’s never one- size-fits-all—and always productive. In Edcamp, "unconference" participants create the agenda and lead the sessions, drawing on their individual expertise, and engage in active collaboration for real results. Afterward, technology keeps the conversation going, building a connected learning environment that lasts. Here you’ll find the tools to run an Edcamp in your school, district, or region and start connecting, including:

  • An overview of the Edcamp model
  • Evidence showing its effectiveness
  • Practical strategies to use right away
  • A dedicated series website
