PBL thrives on collaboration; this network provides structured time and expert facilitation to make that collaboration count.

Dates: 3/6/2027

Join educators from across the region for EdCamp Catskills 2027-a high-energy, participant-driven professional learning experience built around the conversations that matter most to you. An EdCamp is an "unconference": instead of following a pre-set schedule of presentations, participants help create the agenda at the start of the day. Educators suggest topics, lead discussions, share strategies, ask questions, and move between sessions as their interests and needs evolve. Everyone has something valuable to contribute. Whether you want to explore AI in education, student engagement, instructional strategies, assessment, educator wellness, project-based learning, or another timely topic, EdCamp Catskills offers space for meaningful collaboration and practical idea-sharing. Why Attend? Shape the day's learning around your interests, questions, and classroom needs. Connect with educators across grade levels, subjects, roles, and districts. Share a successful practice-or bring a challenge and gather new perspectives. Leave with practical ideas, professional connections, and renewed energy. Experience professional learning that is collaborative, flexible, and immediately relevant. No formal presentation experience is required-just bring your curiosity, your expertise, and a willingness to learn with others. Door Prizes!
