The International Association for K-12 Online Learning (iNACOL) is offering a free webinar about implementing blended learning.

Linked to the upcoming release of the organization's Blended Learning Roadmap, "The webinar will provide opportunities to engage with and learn from other blended learning leaders from the U.S. and Canada," according to a news release. "Panelists will discuss key decision points, successes and challenges they encountered throughout the transition to blended learning. Representing various stages of implementation, these leaders will share the roadmaps they followed to implement blended learning, and will field questions on how to ensure a successful blended learning program."

Panelists will include:

Edi Cox, executive director of online learning at Horry County Schools;
Kevin Croghan, site director of blended learning & learning environments at Denver Public Schools;
Michele Koper, director of the KM Global School for Global Leadership and Innovation; and
Jeff Stewart, district principal at Navigate.

"Consistent, collaborative, innovative and supportive leadership is essential for implementing a successful blended learning program," said Susan Patrick, president and CEO of iNACOL, in a prepared statement. "These cutting-edge blended learning leaders will provide guidance for other school leaders on how to set goals and implement the model that will best meet their individual needs, and create a community of learners where all students are actively engaged and achieving at high levels."

The hour-long webinar will take place October 14 at 2:00 pm Eastern. For more information, or to register, visit inacol.org.
