Hosted in San Antonio, Texas this year, the EDUCAUSE 2024 Annual Conference runs from October 21-24. During that time, attendees can connect with forward-thinking higher-ed professionals for content sessions and programming, networking opportunities, and access to technology and solution providers.
Haven’t registered yet? Do it here! Attendees will have access to various networking opportunities at the conference, both online and in-person. These will come in a variety of formats, including informal meetups, career coaching, mentoring opportunities, facilitated discussions, community group meetings, meet-ups, Braindates, and more.
New this year are Open Roundtable Meetups–dynamic meetup spaces where you can connect, collaborate, and create your own conference moments. You’ll find this
opportunity in the Hemisfair Ballroom on the third floor of the Henry B. González Convention Center, equipped with tables for 10 just waiting to bring your ideas to life.
As you enter, look for the station near the entrance, grab a table tent, and customize it to highlight your meeting or gathering. This is your space to use however you wish.
In addition to all the great sessions and presentations, don’t miss EDUCAUSE’s featured sessions (check back for final locations):

Discover Your Technology Psychology: Join AI speaker and ChatGPT guru Beth Z, Your Nerdy Best Friend, to discover your Technology Psychology. You’ll take a
self-assessment to find out your Technology Psychology Persona to help you understand the benefits and limitations of your approach to new technology. You’ll

Shaping the Future of Higher Education from the CIO’s Seat: The higher education sector has been facing financial and demographic challenges for over a decade. At the same time, IT has evolved from operational enablers to strategic partners, with higher education leaders viewing IT as an integral component of every aspect of the strategic plan and mission. Join us for a moderated panel discussion to hear about trends facing the higher education sector, and how two forward-thinking CIOs are leveraging their roles as strategic leaders at their institutions to proactively position their institutions to chart a course for their universities and shape the future of higher education.
