The California County Boards of Education (CCBE) Annual Conference will be held online or, health conditions permitting, in-person on September 10-12, 2021 at the Hyatt Regency hotel in Monterey, CA. We are soliciting breakout topics that will inspire our attendees to enhance their knowledge about the county board member leadership role, make decisions through an equity lens to effectively respond to the diverse needs of students, how to build leadership skills to become effective agents of change in order to become a high-functioning team and innovative tools and policies that are necessary to support county board members.
While we are grateful for all proposal offers, due to the limited time and space at the conference, the planning committee must review proposals to choose programs that are most closely aligned with current relevant topics. The committee will review proposals, and closely evaluate the learning outcomes narrative, using the following criteria:
• Proposed topic timely and relevant to county boards of education and its policy role
• Overall quality of proposal and well-defined focus
• Are the presenter(s) experienced, knowledgeable, effective, and engaging
• Clearly identified objectives and deliverables
• Is one of the presenter(s) a county board member
• Is the format participatory and interactive
We look forward to receiving your proposal. Proposals are due on or before the preliminary May 1, 2021 deadline. Please feel free to pass this on to any additional interested parties. If you have any questions, please contact us at:
