Friends,
Since we made the difficult decision to transition to a virtual annual conference, ATEC leadership has been hard at work putting together a program that will bring value to the aviation education community, and we think we've come up with some pretty cool stuff.
In response to your suggestions, the virtual event will take place over the course of four days, with 2-3 sessions each morning (and a few early afternoons). To ensure the conference meets the needs of everyone's busy schedules, recorded versions will be available for those that are not able to attend the live event.
Each of the four days has a different focus, kicking off with our usual conversations with FAA regulators and wrapping up with briefings on ATEC programmatic initiatives. Sandwiched in the middle are sessions highlighting industry's response to COVID-induced challenges, and professional development opportunities for our educators.
Also in the works is a virtual exhibitor hall, where the education community can get some face time with suppliers and vendors that have long-supported their programs. More information on that exciting new element coming soon.

We are continually overwhelmed by the unwavering support of our attendees, sponsors, and exhibitors, who have stood by the trade association through a few very challenging months. We look forward to providing an opportunity to recover some of the face-to-face interactions we all look forward to each year, even if its through a computer screen.
Looking forward to "seeing" you all in September,
