SEL Vision Summit Calls for Presentations

Aperture Education, which provides K–12 research-based social and emotional (SEL) learning assessments, recently announced a call for presentation proposals for the 2022 SEL Vision Summit. The professional development event will focus on the theme of “Leading a Legacy” and will take place virtually on Nov. 3, 2022. Presentation proposals focusing on topics like SEL best practices, current research, and testimonials related to K–12 and extracurricular activities are due on Friday, May 13.

The summit’s four tracks include K–8, 9–12, Educators and District Leaders. Presentations are intended to provide insight into future applications of SEL for each group.

“Our SEL Vision Summit is a great opportunity for those who are championing social and emotional learning to share their ideas to inspire others,” said Aperture Education CEO Jessica Adamson. “We welcome presentation proposals that teach, engage and energize and that will help to further the important work our attendees are doing to support the social and emotional development of both students and adults.”

The target audience of the SEL Vision Summit includes teachers, school and district leaders, school counselors, industry experts and out-of-school time providers. The theme, “Leading a Legacy,” refers to how a solid foundation of SEL can create a legacy for students to succeed, according to a news release.
