IGNITE! 2025 Secondary Transition Leadership Institute
Step into the 2025–26 school year with renewed passion, fresh ideas, and a shared purpose. IGNITE! is more than a theme – it is a call to action to reimagine what’s possible in Secondary Transition and education.
Together, we will:
- Inspire Growth – Foster continuous learning for students, educators, and teams.
- Navigate – Build clear, collaborative pathways to postsecondary success.
- Innovate – Embrace new strategies that break barriers.
- Team Up – Strengthen partnerships across agencies and communities.
- Empower – Center student voice, choice, and confidence.
Join us to reignite the relationships, passion, and purpose that make Secondary Transition work transformative. Let’s launch the year with clarity, connection, and unstoppable momentum.
To meet the growing complexity of educational teamwork and limited resource capacity, the 2025 Secondary Transition Leadership Institute has been restructured for maximum impact. This year’s format delivers targeted content, dedicated support, and expanded team planning time, ensuring your travel and time away from students are both meaningful and transformative.
Please note: Registration will close two weeks prior to the event to secure accommodations. Make sure to register early to reserve your spot.
