The EdTech Co-Lab Fellowship: Bay Area, Beta to Breakthrough

Join the EdTech Co-Lab Fellowship: Bay Area, Beta to Breakthrough for Bay Area TFA alum teachers, school leaders and Edtech companies. AI isn’t coming–it’s here. Should we fear it? Ignore it? Or shape it to serve our classrooms? TFA Bay Area and the TFA Reinvention Lab invites you to lead this conversation through action. This is a hands-on experience that empowers the room to cut through the hype to shape AI/Edtech tools that actually work. Co-design solutions to your REAL classroom pain points and reshape the future of education technology. This is a first-of-its-kind opportunity. We’re looking for folks who want to build with us.
Attend the 1-Day in-person kickoff, then decide if the rest of the fellowship (9 hours) is for you…
