This year's event will offer hands-on learning and interactive discussions in three topic tracks:

The sessions will be led by distinguished speakers from institutions and organizations such as Digital Education Council, Digital Promise Global, Mountain View Los Altos High School District, Louisiana Tech University, Texas Wesleyan University, University of Virginia, and more. Attendees will not only gain access to hands-on learning, practical tips, and strategic discussions, but also benefit from opportunities to network and share ideas with speakers and peers, all within the interactive virtual event platform.

"The path to innovation is rarely smooth — especially in education, where complex challenges can stall progress," said Rhea Kelly, editor in chief of Campus Technology and THE Journal. "Tech Tactics in Education is about sharing ideas to break through those barriers. We're thrilled to bring educators and IT leaders together to confront obstacles, spark new insights, and gain the tools they need to move forward."
