Face to face is back!! 40th Annual Educators’ Conference in Panama
Dear Tri-Association friend and colleagues,
It is with great pleasure that I write this introduction to our Fall newsletter and wish all of you a very successful and healthy school year. As I start my second year as the Tri-Association Executive Director, I want to continue to offer you my support, mentorship and friendship. The Tri-Association is here to help!
As we all know, the 40th Annual Educators’ Conference will take place in Panama City, Panama at the Panama Westin Playa Bonita hotel on September 27 and 28 (Preconferences) and September 29, 30 and Oct. 1st (Conference). After more than two years without face-to-face Tri-Association learning opportunities, I am very pleased to once again invite you to our most important FACE to FACE learning event of the year. Your attendance and participation is vital to the success of our conference.
With the utmost respect and admiration for all of our educators throughout the region, and in recognition of their hard work, resilience, effort and support over the past two+ years during the pandemic, we have set the theme of this year’s conference on Hope and Inspiration. I am positive that the sessions you will experience in Panama will reinforce these two feelings and set you up for much success in the future.
The link to this year’s Conference website contains all key components of our conference, preconferences, keynotes, deep-dives, and amazing conference sessions led by consultants, corporate members and regional educators in both English and Spanish.
We are thrilled to once again bring back face to face learning to our region! Hope to see many of you in Panama in September. Remember to register soon!! Please continue reading to learn more about the upcoming conference and our corporate partners.
In learning,
Michael W. Adams, Ed.D.
