Reframe. Retool. Reimagine.
The early care and education system is evolving—and so must we. The challenges ahead demand fresh perspectives, modern tools, and bold collaboration across technology, policy, and practice. This year’s conference invites us to reframe old assumptions, retool the systems that shape our work, and reimagine what’s possible when innovation and determination drive every decision. Together, we’ll explore solutions that move the field forward with purpose and lasting impact. This year’s conference will take place in Minneapolis, MN at the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis from May 13-14, 2026.
