This is one of the most difficult decisions facing our programs and it is one that I am receiving the most inquiries about – what is everyone doing? In order to keep members informed I created another document where programs can voluntarily share their plans pertaining to practicum students and student teachers to date. We know this is a fluid situation and plans will change and evolve. We appreciate those who are willing to share their plans with colleagues!

October 22: IACTE Virtual Fall Conference
February 11: Day at the Capitol February 19: Awards Nominations Due February 26-28: AACTE Annual Meeting (Seattle, WA) April 8 & 9: IACTE Spring Conference @ The Gateway, Ames The Spring 2020 IACTE Conference - Mental Health for All- has been cancelled. We will be carrying over a similar schedule for our Fall 2020 Conference. If you have made hotel reservations already, those should be automatically cancelled if you registered under the IACTE discount. Conference registrations will be refunded in the coming week.
William Penn University has closed campus to all outside groups due to the threat of Covid-19 (corona virus). The timeline is unknown at this time, therefore we have decided to cancel the Teacher Career Fair. Knowing each school district will need to get their hiring complete, virus or not, we just don’t see the necessity to hold the fair much later. We will be organizing to host the 2nd annual, first ever, WPU Teacher Career Fair in spring of 2021.
Thank you for sharing this with your students, we will reach out again when planning starts for 2021. Click below for the SP2020 Conference Registration form
