The IB Virtual Conference will not be your traditional four-day conference, and it is likely to sell out!
Starting 30 November 2020, and extending over a two-week period, you will have the opportunity to engage with education experts, IB staff, peers and exhibitors.
Come together: 30 Nov - 7 Dec 2020
From 30 November - 7 December 2020, we will come together to start the conversation! The virtual platform will be open. Be social! Use this opportunity to connect with other IB educators or ask questions to speakers. We also encourage you to access it and set up your profile, check out the Q&A, resources and explore other available features.
Learn together: 8 - 11 Dec 2020
From 8 - 11 December 2020, we will learn together. You will have access to 60+ live and on-demand sessions, and the opportunity to network and discuss with fellow IB educators, IB staff, speakers, presenters and exhibitors.
Build together: 12 Feb 2021
Until the 12 February 2021, we will build together by reflecting on the conference. You will have access to video recordings of all session and to all resources on the platform.
