VirtCon is a bi-annual conference that offers teachers the chance to hear cutting-edge keynotes and be inspired by thought-provoking presentations. This year’s Spring VirtCon will be on April 16 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Since Georgia Public Broadcasting (GPB) partners with Discovery Education (DE) to provide access for all Georgia teachers and students, this is a perfect opportunity to participate in engaging discussions with the Discovery Education Community around the world. VirtCon provides you with a chance to hear from speakers as well as your peers, share ideas and instructional tools, and discover new resources available to you. Register today!

How You Can Participate:

VirtCon is streamed live from DE’s headquarters in Maryland, so all you need to participate is a computer with Internet access. All of the sessions are offered virtually, so you can come and go throughout the day. Sign up today to reserve your seat and to receive more information as it becomes available.
