Starting in 2024, the NASDTEC Professional Education Committee (PEC) held its first National Convening. The focus for 2024, 2025, and 2026 has been Registered Apprenticeships in Teaching. The National Convening is designed to address current topics related to education for which new information is coming quickly or not as readily available as one would like. Therefore, depending on the national landscape, the National Convening focus changes.

The National Council for the Advancement of Educator Ethics (NCAEE) conducts the National Symposium on Educator Ethics at different times throughout the year in conjunction with other organizations (e.g., AASPA, AAQEP, CAEP), in order to reach school district and educator preparation personnel at gatherings they already plan to attend.
