About the Conference
The ACAMIS Student Leadership Conference on Technology Leadership brings together students and faculty advisers who are interested in how technology can improve learning, communication, creativity, and school life.
This one-day, in-person conference is designed for school teams of up to 5 students and 1 to 2 faculty advisers. Schools will attend as teams, with students taking an active role in sharing challenges, presenting ideas, and shaping future action.
Technology leadership is not only about using tools. It is about making thoughtful decisions, supporting peers, asking responsible questions, and helping schools adapt to change.
