The EELC Corner

Welcome to the EELC Corner, where you’ll get the latest updates on the premier conference in ECE. This year’s Early Educators Leadership Conference will focus on the timely theme: Leading Career Pathways to Equity. Join us as we encourage, educate and elevate those in our field who are doing so much to lift our children up.

Our retreat-style conference will offer nearly 30 sessions custom tailored to your interests and concerns. You will gain inspiration and vital information on how to improve your daily work with children, families and colleagues. You’ll also learn ways to be at your best for them in cutting-edge sessions on self-care. Check out some of the sessions that are being offered, from the Power of Laughter to Yoga in the Garden.

And you can catch some rays while you enrich your life since this year’s conference will be held in Orlando, FL, on October 5-8. This year’s host hotel is the Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld. It’s a lovely, family-friendly resort close to many local attractions, so think about arriving early or extending your stay to take advantage of all the area has to offer.
