Westat staff from across the Comprehensive Center Network will be participating at the 2024 National ESEA Conference on February 7–10, 2024, in Portland, Oregon and online. The National ESEA Conference is aimed at coordination among federal education programs under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) and other federal programs.
Westat staff from the National Comprehensive Center will be orchestrating a triple booth (#826–829) in the exhibit hall, engaging attendees with fun activities, discussing projects and services, and disseminating resources and swag. We hope you’ll stop by in person or virtually to learn more about Westat and the work of the Comprehensive Center Network.
Westat staff will be presenting in 6 sessions (see below; Westat staff in bold), with topics ranging from best practices for educator effectiveness, tutoring programs, and data-driven financial decisionmaking.
