Does your organization have a plan for how to engage with the next presidential/gubernatorial administration’s transition team?

Presidential and gubernatorial transitions are moments of tremendous excitement and activity, providing multiple opportunities to advance a vision of high-quality education for all students. Given the many competing priorities during the transition process, it is important to act quickly and intentionally to advocate for your priorities during this crucial window of opportunity.

EdTrust, EducationCounsel, All4Ed, National Urban League, National Center for Learning Disabilities, and SchoolHouse Connection developed two transition guides for advocates. These guides provide overviews of the federal and state transition processes to help leaders build a strategy to maximize opportunities and minimize risks regarding their key education priorities. The goal is to provide a simple framework to help guide deeper discussions and planning.

This virtual event will provide an overview of federal and state transition processes, strategies for engaging transition teams, and support to kickstart planning. We will demystify presidential and gubernatorial transitions, giving your work an advantage in this critical moment.
