2025 ECEL Conference

About the Conference

The Early Career Educators Leadership (ECEL) virtual conference is designed to support and promote leadership capacity by connecting Nevada educators from our urban and rural areas. 

 

Conference presentations are delivered by teacher leaders, education specialists, and wellness experts.

 

The conference schedule allows participants to process the information and discuss ways to implement strategies effectively in their teaching context.

 

The virtual format offers equitable access for rural educators who cannot travel to an in-person conference.

2024 Participant Reflections

"Student and family interactions can only be improved by what I have learned and taken from these sessions today. Because I have some new ideas so early in the school year, I will be able to immediately implement some of the ideas that were introduced today." 

"This professional learning experience was very eye opening. It made me realize that yes, teaching is my job but it does not need to control my entire life. I need to be able to separate my work and home life and create a healthy balance. I need to be able to appreciate my support system and recognize the importance of everyday and appreciate the memories (good, bad, and ugly)." 

    "For the remainder of the school year, I plan to focus heavily on metacognition, encouraging my students to reflect on their own progress and learn how to access the resources necessary to achieve success."

We are honored to highlight our 2025 Presenters.
