May 6, 2020 – Holiday Inn by the Bay, Portland, ME

 

ACTEM is watching the news like you are and we’re concerned for the potential impact of the Coronavirus on our Spring Leadership Conference.  We are seeing many events being canceled, rescheduled, or virtualized. 

Because things are changing daily, ACTEM will be deferring a decision about our conference at this time.  ACTEM does not want to put any of you at risk by attending our annual Spring Leadership Conference.  We will proceed carefully and ultimately make a decision based upon the guidance from the State and the CDC to ensure the safety of all.

 

ACTEM has posted a  “Response to potential Coronavirus impact on our 2020 Spring Leadership Conference” on our website.

 

ACTEM has a great line up of workshops and an outstanding keynote speaker scheduled for the 2020 Spring Leadership Conference.  We are hoping that circumstances will improve in the near future and we will still be able to offer this annual professional development opportunity for Maine educators.  We currently have over 50 attendees along with 16 exhibitors and 30 exhibitor reps and presenters registered. 

 

In the meantime…

·       ACTEM encourages everyone to stay safe and follow the guidelines offered by many agencies including the CDC on the Coronavirus

·       Ultimately, ACTEM is prepared to cancel the conference if the Coronavirus impact becomes a high risk in our State.

·       ACTEM will be (as listed in our “Response to potential Coronavirus impact...) offering credit and/or refunds for both attendees and exhibitors if our conference is canceled.

Best regards!
