• Professional Development opportunities at the ITEEA Annual Conference including travel funds for the Consortium Director and a lead trainer;
• Strategic Initiatives Meeting twice per year, including the Fall Leadership Forum (September) and Annual ITEEA Conference (March);
• Limited Network Schools are included with the annual membership. The Network Schools include pre-post tests and the EbD online professional learning community (Collaborate byDesign™).
