Regional Communities
Regional Communities connect us by place. Spotlight Communities connect us by purpose, identity, and passion. Together, they make IDEA an alliance.
Membership is 100% Free
A community is more than an event—it is a place of belonging built through meaningful relationships and shared purpose.
- Digital-age learning, innovation, and emerging technologies impact all of education—and your voice can help move the conversation forward.
- The conversation needs every educator—across every subject, role, and learning environment. Each of us brings an essential perspective, and together, we shape the complete learning experience for every student.
- Every student's future is undefined and yet technology will continue to have an impact on defining what their world will look and feel like.
- That’s why this conversation needs every educator—you don’t have to be a technology expert to help shape digital-age learning.
- Bring your area of educator expertise. Bring your experience. Bring your voice.
- Come for the workshops, IDEAcon, and resources. Stay for the community.
IDEA Statewide Organization
IDEA’s 21 geographically aligned chapters connect educators throughout Illinois based on where they live, work, and or serve.
We believe this is a great way to connect as local relationships matter. Educators in the same region often understand one another’s schools, communities, opportunities, and challenges in ways that cannot be replicated across distance.
