Education Programming Committee

The committee serves in an advisory capacity to the IAEE professional staff and will assist in the planning, execution and evaluation of IAEE’s core education programming.

  • Review and evaluate members’ educational needs (content and delivery) and recommend appropriate changes using annual surveys and evaluation results.
  • Identify industry trends, which can be addressed through educational programming, through member outreach and engagement.
  • Utilize data collected in participant surveys and trends identified by the committee to select content areas, develop content area definitions and identify learning objectives for IAEE’s Call for Presentations.
  • Review presentation proposal submissions.
  • Participate in a half-day or full day meeting in the spring/summer of 2025 to select education sessions and speakers for Expo! Expo! (including keynotes).
  • Promote and recommend to speakers to submit proposals for consideration.
  • Each member will be responsible for a personal awards submission for the IAEE awards category for Educator of the Year.
  • Brainstorm on topics and speakers for yearly IAEE webinars.
