Join us for the 2026 Chancellor’s Conference on Academic Technology! This year’s theme, Future-Ready by Design: Connecting the A&M System Dots for Tomorrow’s Students, highlights the collective impact of academic technology and innovation across the A&M System. Join us as we reflect on meaningful progress and explore what’s next in teaching, learning, and institutional effectiveness, linking academic innovation to the skills, creativity, and adaptability students need in the modern classroom.

This year’s conference will be offered in two distinct events. Each event features its own agenda and requires separate registration.

  1. An in-person experience filled with high-impact sessions, networking opportunities, and hands-on learning in Bryan-College Station, Texas — June 8–9, 2026
  2. A virtual experience designed for flexibility and broad access, featuring live-streamed content and interactive online sessions — June 16, 2026

Both are open to all faculty, staff, and students at A&M System member institutions. Early registration is encouraged, especially for the in-person event, as space is limited.

And the best part? Registration is completely free.
