EduForums - OISE Continuing and Professional Learning

Collaborative professional learning grounded in dialogue, reflection, and applied learning

EduForum is a three-day, immersive professional learning experience that brings K-12 educators and education leaders together to explore timely issues in education through practitioner dialogue, collaborative inquiry, school- and field-based learning, and applied planning.

Each EduForum is designed to move beyond traditional conference-style learning by creating space for educators to engage directly with practice, learn alongside peers, examine real examples from schools and systems, and reflect on what meaningful implementation can look like within their own contexts.

More Than a Conference

EduForum is designed for educators who want more than a passive conference experience.

Across three days, participants step away from daily demands to learn from practitioners, visit school or field-based settings, and work through ideas with peers facing similar questions.

The format combines panels, immersive visits, guided discussion, and applied planning so educators can return to their own contexts with sharper insight, practical tools, and stronger professional connections.
