Announcing Our 2026-2027 Events Calendar
A new year of learning is set at the Arizona K12 Center!
For the 2026–2027 school year, the Arizona K12 Center will once again bring educators together through its signature professional learning opportunities! You can look forward to experiencing our cornerstone offerings such as Mentor Institute Foundations, the Beginning Teacher Series, and National Board support events, each designed to build capacity, foster reflection, and strengthen instructional practice at every stage of an educator’s career.
This year’s calendar comes with a renewed and intentional focus: every event will be aligned to the State 48 Graduate Profile. This alignment ensures that all professional learning experiences directly support the knowledge, skills, and dispositions Arizona students need to thrive in college, career, and community. By weaving the State 48 Graduate Profile into each program, we have created a cohesive, forward-thinking approach to professional development, one that connects educator growth with student outcomes.
