Update

Greetings ETED Members,

Pumpkin yourself up to Viva Las Vegas! Now is the time to make plans to attend ACTE’s CareerTech VISION 2022 conference Nov. 30–Dec. 3 in Las Vegas, Nevada. ETED will be hosting a special reception Friday, Dec. 2 at the HyperX Esports Arena. I would love to connect with you at the opening session and the reception. VISION offers a chance to fall for the latest technologies and best practices related to career and technical education. There are plenty of opportunities for both in-person and virtual attendees.


To include as many members as possible, the ETED Business meeting will be held virtually again this year. The meeting will take place Thursday, Nov. 17 at 5:00 p.m. ET. While everyone is welcome to attend, you must be an ETED member to vote. Please use this link to register by Friday, Nov. 4. Registration will be required to receive the meeting link.


Fall is an exciting time with the changing weather and changing colors. I encourage you to find a balance between your classroom and personal time. Self-care is important. Break out the sweaters, drink some hot chocolate, and count your blessings. Take care and know that your work in developing tomorrow’s innovators is worthwhile and important.


Kind regards,

Richelle Downey
