Tech Share LIVE! Returns to FETC, Plus Leadership Summits Debut at the 2026 Conference

“Tech Share LIVE! captures the creativity and implementation touches educators crave,” said Jennifer Womble, FETC Conference Chair. “It’s about learning through laughter, connecting through curiosity, and leaving with ideas that transform classrooms.”
New to FETC 2026, the Leadership Summits offer immersive, role-based professional development experiences for K–12 leaders. Developed in collaboration with Future Ready Schools (All4Ed), Kennesaw State University, CAST, CoSN, SETDA, the Network of Academic and Scholastic eSports Federation (NASEF), and other national partners, these role-based immersive professional development experiences provide intensive three- or six-hour sessions focused on the most pressing topics in education technology.
Summit topics include:
- AI Classroom Leaders Summit: Essential AI training to empower classroom leaders to confidently and responsibly integrate AI into education.
- AI Leaders Summit: Policy, ethics, and leadership considerations of AI.
- Coach Leaders Summit: Best practices for instructional and technology coaching.
- Executive Leadership Summit: Visionary strategies for district and school leaders.
- Inclusive Leaders Summit: EdTech for all learners, featuring UDL and assistive innovations.
- IT Leaders Summit: Cybersecurity, infrastructure, and digital equity.

- CTE Summit: Aligning education with workforce demands through innovation and partnerships.
- Esports Leaders Summit: Building inclusive programs that drive engagement and success.
- STEM & Robotics Summit: Practical strategies for engaging hands-on STEM instruction.
“We gathered input from our community and collaborated with leaders within each of these areas to create a program that allows educators to access the professional development they need, when they need it,” added Womble. “FETC is designed for teams—because the best school cultures grow when everyone learns together.”
