No. After ISTE+ASCD became the International Society for Transforming Education in 2026, the co-located ISTE and ASCD conferences became one event, ISTELive.

Can I earn CEUs or graduate credit?

Possibly. A certificate of attendance is available to all registrants, but CEU eligibility depends on your district or state Department of Education; official credit providers will be listed this fall.

About this event

ISTELive is the annual conference of the International Society for Transforming Education, the organisation formed when ISTE and ASCD merged and renamed in 2026. What used to be the co-located ISTE and ASCD annual conferences is now a single event connecting instructional strategy, educator practice and purposeful technology use. ISTELive 27 is a hybrid event, held in person in Boston with a virtual option.

Formats

The in-person programme mixes hands-on sessions with listen-and-learn talks and an expo hall, with some content only available on site.

Hands-on interactive programming
Listen-and-learn sessions
Immersive demos in the expo hall
Playgrounds and posters (in person only)
Learning tracks by topic or role, with an AI Program Concierge to plan your schedule

Virtual attendance

Virtually presented content runs from Saturday, June 26 through Wednesday, June 30. ISTE plans 90+ sessions streamed from Boston and 150+ recorded sessions posted within 24 hours and available for six months.

Who attends

Teachers, instructional coaches, school and district leaders, and education technology specialists, plus the edtech companies exhibiting in the expo. Sessions are labelled as ASCD, ISTE or blended content so both communities can find their topics.
