Upcoming Professional Development Opportunities

I would like to share two exciting professional development opportunities:

  1. 2025 Antiracist Education Conference on Saturday, March 1, 2025, online.
  2. SUNY-Wide Transfer Town Hall on Wednesday, March 5, 2025, online.

I am sharing the overview of these programs.

2025 Antiracist Education Conference: Leading with Purpose

Our Local History is proud to present its fourth annual Antiracist Education Conference. This year’s theme, "Leading with Purpose," will inspire meaningful conversations and actionable insights for educators and community members alike.

The conference is meant to provide you with the tools, knowledge and inspiration to instill your classroom or community space with equity, antiracism and civic action. Our keynote speaker, Dr. Matthew Kay, will present his compelling research on how to speak about race in elementary classrooms.

The conference will happen via Zoom and is free to attend. It is sponsored by our local schools of education: the Warner School at the University of Rochester; the Ralph J. Wilson School of Education at St. John Fisher College; the Nazareth University School of Education; the Ella Cline Shear School of Education at SUNY Geneseo; and the SUNY Brockport Department of Education and Human Development.

Please register for the Antiracist Education Conference, peruse the sessions as they're posted and get ready for a powerful day of learning, reflection, and commitment to equity in education.

SUNY-Wide Transfer Town Hall

Join us for the kickoff of the SUNY Transfer Initiative, which will advance the recently approved recommendations of the SUNY Transfer Task Force. Learn more about upcoming projects, technology tools, new communities, professional development, and overarching goals, all designed to dramatically improve the SUNY transfer landscape and outcomes of students who transfer within the system. All members of the SUNY community are invited to join. If you are interested in, please register for the Transfer Town Hall Zoom session.
