Leadership Lab

Are you wondering about starting your leadership journey? Or maybe you are actively hoping to advance? The AsEA Conference Leadership Lab is just what you need. According to National Association of Independent Schools data, there will be a significant leadership need within independent schools due to a high turnover rate among heads and senior administrators, with many expecting to leave their current positions within the next few years. The AsEA Leadership Lab aims to support the career development of AANHPI educators who are currently in leadership positions or those who aspire to be in these roles. Learn from these amazing leaders in our independent schools!

Student Program

This year we are offering high school students a special and exciting program. We have partnered with AsEA Conference student alumni and TeachAAPI to provide workshops and learning spaces specifically tailored for high school students. Students will focus on identity, allyship, activism, leadership, and building community. Led by a diverse team of trained adults and peer facilitators, participating students will develop cross-cultural communication skills, design effective strategies for social justice practice through dialogue, and learn the foundations of allyship and networking principles.
