Who is TCEA?

As the largest nonprofit ed tech association in the United States, with just over 80,000 members, we’ve been working with educators and legislators for over 44 years to eliminate the barriers in education.

We’re dedicated to advancing teaching and learning through the use of technology because we want to make learning possible for every student. How? Through a combination of advocacy, professional learning, and community offered through TCEA membership. That means that, from efficient teaching strategies to educational networking, we’ve got your needs covered. 

Plus, everyone who attends a TCEA event gets a TCEA membership with their registration. The best part? Membership renews for free each year.

What is the TCEA Convention & Exposition?

The TCEA Convention & Exposition is our biggest and brightest educator-focused professional development event of the year. We’ve been putting on this educational conference for over 44 years, and we can tell you straight up – it’s a powerful learning experience spent alongside a supportive, international community of educators. It’s not just a conference for educators. It’s so much more. 

Is this an ed tech conference?

Yes, but it’s so much more.

At TCEA, thousands of educators from around the world come together to connect, learn, and cultivate their craft. Our focus isn’t just on education technology, it’s on good teaching, good leading, and good learning with ed tech tools in tow.

Our top educational seminars, an exhibit hall full of first-rate educational vendors, professional learning for teachers, librarians, and administrators, and more, give you the teaching efficiency boost you need to fuel your curiosity and discovery.
