Ignite returns to the 2018 IASA Conference. Ignite is a fast-paced method of sharing best practices. Each presenter has five minutes to “Tell Their Story” about an initiative they are proud to share with their fellow superintendents. The format consists of 20 slides advancing automatically every 15 seconds. This requires the presenter to be concise and entertaining in order to make an impact with the audience. This year’s presenters and topics are listed below. Be sure to support your colleagues as they share their topics with you.
