The Accelerating Learning Conference 2022
Register now but use next year's budget.
Virtual Conference July 19-20, 2022
For Teachers, Instructional Coaches, School and District Leaders
Presented by Learning-Focused, Education Leaders on Accelerating Learning
What is Accelerating Learning?
This conference provides the tools, strategies, and discourse on proven Acceleration Practices that you can integrate into your lessons, units, and school culture.
Student learning is Accelerated by planning and implementing specific strategies and practices before, during, and after lessons. You will recognize some of the strategies, while many will be new to you. The differences between success and failure for Accelerating Learning are how and when the Acceleration strategies are used, and how consistent and pervasive the strategies are implemented. Thus, Accelerating Learning is not a single strategy, but multiple strategies that are purposefully planned and connected.
During this conference, you will explore how Acceleration Practices are planned and used across all grades and content areas. By attending this conference, you will discover strategies and structures that close learning gaps and significantly increase student self-efficacy.
Are You Ready for High Expectations of All Students?
The Accelerating Learning Conference will provide you with the keys to reversing learning gaps without lowering learning expectations. This is what makes Acceleration Practices so effective – students are much more successful when they are taught their grade level standards at the time it is presented!
It is time to break the cycle of low achievement by providing students a pathway to success that increases their self-efficacy.

What Do You Believe?
If you believe there are strategies and practices that support students who struggle with grade level expectations and lead to their success while significantly increasing their self-efficacy, then this conference is for you! We believe that all schools can be exemplary schools where all students are successful. Learning-Focused has years of experience providing research-based strategies and evidence-based practices proven to Accelerate Learning.
It is this experience with Accelerating Learning that drives the content for this conference.
