How Is Your Tech Team Transitioning to Meet Today's Critical Needs for Your School?

Year-Long ATLIS Leadership Institute Can Help Guide Tech Leaders During Another Critical Year

The 2021-2022 Leadership Institute is is no longer accepting applications for the 2021-2022 Cohort. Please email Susan Davis at [email protected] with any questions about future programming.

There’s never been a more critical time to level-up your leadership skills.

Now is the time to go beyond DIY professional development.

Investments in tech are critical to fulfilling your school’s mission.

Following a year of disruptions and transitions, assure that you have all the skills you need.

What a year of change and transition this has been. By now you have likely completed the hiring needed to meet the new technology demands at your school. Perhaps you have leveled up your leadership or that of someone in your department. By its very nature the technology team at a school comes from many different directions, and the ATLIS Leadership Institute is the only program of its kind designed to meet the needs of technology leaders as they grow into their positions and expand their influence.

If you have specific questions about the program, please direct them to Susan Davis, [email protected]
