The future of education is here, and it’s being shaped by disruptive technologies. The WA Education Summit 2024 offers an exciting opportunity to dive into this wave of change. Whether you’re an educator, school leader, or just passionate about the future of learning, this event promises to deliver valuable insights and the best experience possible.
At the heart of our summit is the keynote address by the visionary Dr Jordan Nguyen. Hear him unravel how these cutting-edge technologies are not just transforming, but revolutionising the educational landscape. Learn from educators who are already harnessing the power of these technologies in their classrooms, and participate in engaging workshops that will equip you with practical skills for the digital age.
But it’s not just about learning – it’s about experiencing. Explore a multitude of innovative technologies that are redefining the way we manage our schools and our classrooms. Join us for a day of inspiration, excitement, and transformation. Have fun. Be inspired. Embrace the future. #WAES24
