Description
The second NFTE Entrepreneurial Teacher Summit will focus on the theme of the teacher as an educational entrepreneur. Through peer- and expert-led sessions over a four-day period, attendees will begin to develop their own entrepreneurial mindsets and learn how to activate the mindset in their students. This event is made possible thanks to the generous support of the Diana Davis Spencer Foundation.
Those educators who experience the Summit will leave prepared to be innovators in their schools, supporting students and igniting a life-long passion for learning, achieving, and entrepreneurship.
