Dear members and friends of Drivers of Educational Technology/California Higher Education (DET/CHE):
Join us at the Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel, November 29 to December 2. Mark your calendars!
2022 has been a year of return: DET/CHE members are hosting in-person classes on campus, working on-site, monitoring the changing pandemic and striving to understand and attain the “normal operations” we anticipate as nearly at hand. Join us as we gather for our 37th Annual conference.
James W. Marshall’s discovery of gold in Cullumah Valley of the Nisenan Indians in 1848 ignited the California Gold Rush. This unexpected event spawned several years of focused behavior which had both negative and positive impacts at a national scale. This year we’ll share our discoveries as some of us returned to our physical campuses, while others transitioned away from them. How did you
reconnect? What new areas and ideas did you explore? We invite you to submit a conference presentation proposal and share those stories with the DET/CHE community.
Drivers of Educational Technology/California Higher Education (DET/CHE) is a dynamic organization committed to providing professional growth for its membership. Since its beginning in 1985, DET/CHE has emerged as a major force in bringing together academic technology leaders from California’s public and private colleges and universities.
DET/CHE offers a unique opportunity for educational technology leaders from the California Community Colleges, the California State University, the University of California, and private institutions to network, stay current, and create lasting connections with each other, as well as with colleagues in industry. DET/CHE is a welcoming community that encourages presentations and participation from established, emerging, and aspiring educational technology leaders throughout California’s higher educational systems.
Drivers of Educational Technology/California Higher Education enables participants to champion the goals of higher education as they share insights and opportunities to deliver relevant resources to our campuses, collaborate with colleagues across our campuses and industry, be fiscally responsible, facilitate the enhancement of student learning, and continue to lead innovation.
