Women Leading Delaware Education

UD to host professional learning conference for educators

For the first time this year, the University of Delaware College of Education and Human Development’s School Success Center (SSC) will host the sixth annual Women Leading Delaware Education Conference on UD’s Newark campus. The event will take place on Wednesday, March 13, at Clayton Hall Conference Center.

The Women Leading Delaware Education Conference is a networking and professional learning event for teachers and administrators in elementary, secondary and higher education settings. The event addresses issues specific to women and education leadership and provides a powerful opportunity for current and aspiring leaders to convene for an impactful day of connection, reflection and inspiration.

“Women share a common set of challenges in pursuing leadership in education,” said Faith Muirhead, SSC director. “There is strength in sharing our stories and learning from one another. We invite you to come out and meet authentic, ambitious, intelligent, visionary women who have successfully navigated the ladder to leadership.”

The theme of this year’s event is “Celebrating Our Resilience,” and the keynote speaker, sponsored by the Delaware Department of Education, will be Jane Kise, founder of Differentiated Coaching Associates.

The event will also include information tables from the SSC, the Institute for Public Administration in UD’s Joseph R. Biden, Jr. School of Public Policy and Administration and the state of Delaware’s Office of Women’s Advancement and Advocacy.

Individuals of all genders and backgrounds may participate.
