Introducing the Summer Institute – Home Edition!
Be sure to attend the upcoming Summer Institute – Home Edition!, July 27-30, with a focus on preparing you and your local for the challenges that lie ahead, and a special emphasis on the unique issues we will all face as we get ready for the new school year in this new era of COVID-19.
The Summer Institute – Home Edition! is provided free of charge to CTA members. Do not miss this extraordinary opportunity!
Online Conference FormatThis year, CTA is taking the Summer Institute online! During registration, attendees are automatically enrolled in general sessions, and can choose from a wide range of elective sessions. All sessions will be conducted online using the video-conference platform Webex Events.
General sessions will take place first thing in the morning and be followed by a first daily elective. A second elective will take place early in the afternoon on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Thursday, we will close this week of learning with an early afternoon general keynote.
The topics of the elective sessions will emulate our classic Summer Institute tracks:
