Join us for The Yass Summit 2023, a groundbreaking event hosted at the world-famous Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. This event marks the convergence of passion, innovation, and action in the realm of education.
Educators and innovators representing more than 27 million students across all 50 states have applied for the Yass Prize in 2023!
Not only will we be bringing together the brightest minds in education, but also celebrating an important milestone – the 30th Anniversary of the Center for Education Reform (CER)! As we reflect on three decades of tireless effort and significant progress, we also look to the horizon, eager to shape an inspiring, impactful future for global education.
In addition to enlightening conversations and empowering experiences, you will meet our Yass Prize awardees – innovators who have pushed boundaries, questioned the status quo, and brought about transformative changes in the sphere of education.
Your participation will contribute towards shaping the trajectory of the next era of education innovation and opportunity.
The event offers an array of keynote speeches, engaging panel discussions, and networking opportunities, but more than that, it provides a platform for you to voice your own insights and ideas.
Join us in celebrating the past, cherishing the present, and architecting the future of education. Let’s ignite conversations, fuel transformative actions, and continue the global effort to improve education. This is not just a summit; It’s a movement.
Due to the high demand for this event, we are excited to expand seating! Please join our waitlist for CER’s 30th Anniversary Celebration and the announcement of the Semifinalists of the 2023 Yass Prize. We will approve your attendance as soon as we confirm additional space for the event.
