The CEO Academy is a Pan-Canadian professional network of school system superintendents (chief executive officers of their district) committed to setting Canadian standards for 21st century learning, innovation and technology in the education system. Members share a focus on creating cultures of innovation and transformation, and a moral imperative to develop global competencies that students need for their future. This facilitated network is a model of collaborative inquiry on innovation and system scaling.
CEO Academy leaders are uniquely positioned to provide advice, perspective and guidance to help shape pan-Canadian policies that support learning for all students. Seek out a CEO Academy leader in your jurisdiction to connect and collaborate.
