The program builds connection and collaboration through a combination of thought leadership, innovation demonstrations and networking.
It’s an opportunity for Victorian based educators, EdTech leaders and key stakeholders to meet and develop a shared understanding with relation to cross-sector challenges, the role of EdTech in strategic planning, procurement processes, and pilot programs.
Importantly it will break barriers, create connections and drive meaningful collaboration and partnership among participants.
