Getting Smart Podcast | EdLeader Voices at the iNACOL Symposium

It’s hard to believe but it’s that time of year again–back-to-school is quickly approaching, which for many of us means it’s also time to register for the leading event for K-12 competency-based, blended and online learning: the iNACOL Symposium.

This year’s Symposium is October 23rd-25th at the Swan & Dolphin Resort in sunny Orlando, Florida. Registration is open now for the event—be sure to register today so you don’t miss out!

In the past, our team has been lucky enough to attend this event and record the thoughts of other attendees. So listen in as EdLeaders from a variety of schools and education organizations answer why they choose to attend the Symposium, what sets the event apart from others and what their main takeaways from the event.
