Review the list of the officers and board members during the early years (1985 – 1997).

The DET/CHE annual conference typically takes place in the week following Thanksgiving, moving between Northern and Southern California locations. The first DET/CHE conference was held in 1986; 2020 marks the 35th annual DET/CHE conference. The table below provides historical information on conference location, theme, and keynote speakers, though note that not every conference has designated a theme or featured keynote speakers. In 2018, DET/CHE adopted an organizational theme of Innovation – Inspiration – Community which serves as an enduring conference theme.
