If you teach business, marketing, entrepreneurship—or any CTE course—you already know:
Most professional development isn’t built for you.

I am a certified Continuing Professional Education (CPE) provider in Texas. (Texas CPE #910043 – Crown Collaborative LLC is my company)
I am also an approved Act 48 Professional Development provider in Pennsylvania, so if you come from PA, you will get Act 48 PD credits.
My goal is to help business and CTE educators:
The summit will be held in Irving, TX near the Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW) Airport, making it easy for business and CTE educators traveling from across Texas and beyond. The conference hotel has a shuttle to and from DFW*, so you won’t need an uber or rental car.Â
The Summit hotel address is:
Towneplace Suites by Marriott
Dallas DFW Airport North
4800 Plaza Drive
Irving, TX 75063
*FYI – The Hotel Shuttle is for DFW Airport only. So if you fly Southwest into Love Field (the other Dallas Airport), you will not have an airport shuttle to the hotel. You will need a taxi, uber, or rental car to get to the Summit location.
To fly into DFW Airport → you’ll need to fly on airline like American, Delta, United, etc.
I will be releasing the full summit agenda and schedule soon.
