Women in Technology Breakfast and Panel

Date/Time/Room
November 3
7:30 am - 8:20 am CT
Room: B11d
Audience

In 2022, only 19% of STEM graduates were women and 24% of computing jobs were held by women. Women leave tech jobs a 45% higher rate then men, meaning an immense amount of talent and leadership is flowing out of the entire tech sector – including tech-connected K-12 school districts.

How can we all help support and elevate women in technology fields? Join us for this first-of-its-kind panel, where you’ll learn from edtech trailblazers past and present, including their successes, challenges, and strategies for developing pathways to professional growth.

Attendees will also have the chance to connect with other women in technology and discover insights into leading while staying true to their identity.

Featured panelists:

  • Myra Lolkema | South Holland SD 150
  • Katie Monroe | Signal Hill School District 181
  • Traci Johnson | Rochester CUSD 3A
  • Anna Hanson | ByteSpeed

Moderated by Mindy Fiscus, Director of Government Affairs | Learning Technology Center

Hear their stories in their words and leave feeling empowered and prepared to elevate marginalized voices in every edtech space.

Complimentary breakfast will be served.
