We are delighted you are considering becoming a presenter at our upcoming Educators Conference. We believe that your expertise will be a valuable addition to the event and we are confident that the attendees will benefit from your insights. We look forward to your participation and are excited to have you join us for this amazing opportunity.
Thank you in advance!
What hybrid means to us?
We will be hosting in-person sessions in Great Falls. Keynotes will be LIVE streamed from the Theater; virtual sessions will be in the format of VOD (videos on demand) and Zoom during the conference days of October 15 - 16, 2026.
What type of sessions are we looking?
We are seeking a wide variety of sessions for the upcoming conference! While participating curriculum groups are working alongside MFPE staff to plan, we also welcome proposals from individuals outside these groups. You do not need to be a member of a curriculum group or MFPE to present. Simply select the area that best fits your topic—or choose “General” if it doesn’t align with a specific category. This year, we are especially interested in expanding offerings in Elementary Education, Early Childhood, and Native American Studies, but all areas of expertise are encouraged.
Wondering why you would consider presenting at the MFPE Educators Conference?
The MFPE Educators Conference isn’t just Montana’s largest professional development event—it’s one of the premier gatherings for educators in the Northwestern United States. This is your chance to showcase your expertise, share innovative strategies, and inspire colleagues from across the region. Presenting positions you as a leader in your field, expands your professional network, and provides a platform to make a lasting impact on education in Montana and beyond. Whether you’re passionate about classroom practices, emerging trends, or specialized topics, your voice matters—and this is the perfect stage to be heard. Don’t just attend—help shape the conversation!
Participating Curriculum Groups
Curriculum groups plan, recruit and sponsor sessions for our peer to peer lead conference. Sessions are not limited to these area. If you don't find your area of interest feel free to submit a session under a general or other relevant group listed.
