2025 Teachers' Convention
Join us October 23-24 for an enriching experience that fosters professional development, collaboration, and spiritual renewal for educators in Christian schools.
Teachers' Convention
Our annual Teachers’ Convention is hosted by a different school each year. Relevant themes, speakers and workshops are provided, with engaging worship, conversation, and, of course, excellent catering of meals and snacks throughout the event.
Our 2025 Convention will be hosted in Lacombe, Alberta by Central Alberta Christian High School (CACHS) and Lacombe Christian School (LCS) on October 23-24.
We are excited to have Dr. Dave Mulder as our keynote speaker. He will lead us through three sessions.
Dr. Dave Mulder
Keynote Speaker
Dr. David J. Mulder serves as a professor and the department chair in the Education Department at Dordt University in Sioux Center, Iowa. Dr. Mulder teaches both undergraduate and graduate courses, sharing his expertise in effective teaching through classroom and online instruction, educational technology, curriculum and instructional design, and professional development. His scholarly work focuses on AI in education, technology integration, and social presence in online learning.
“I'm so grateful that I have the opportunity to be part of the formation of distinctively Christian teachers who see their work as part of building Christ's kingdom,” says Dr. Mulder.
Dr. Mulder is the author of Always Becoming, Never Arriving: Developing an Imagination for Teaching Christianly, which considers how "teaching Christianly is a journey, a process of growing as a more faithful disciple and more closely following Jesus day by day."
