Join members of the Early Career Committee and other local Early Career educators (years 1-10 in the profession) in your area as well as those across the state. We hope to connect and learn together to share what are the most pressing needs as an early career educator. Topics for discussion will be decided by the participants at each location. Possible topics of discussion include discussing current problems being faced by EC educators, classroom management techniques, work/life balance, what is the union, and many more! Resources will also be provided for Early Career Region Representatives to take back to their regions.
This is a free event and includes lunch for all attendees! The blitz will take place on the same day and in three different IEA offices: Lombard, Champaign and Edwardsville. Members are encouraged to signup to attend their closest location, but will have a chance to meet educators from around the state!
