Make Plans for the 2025 EELC!
The Council for Professional Recognition invites you to join us at the Early Educators Leadership Conference (EELC). EELC is a national event that supports a broad vision to advance and unify the early childhood education workforce, inspire early childhood educators, elevate educational leaders, and foster professional development.

The 2025 EELC theme is “Celebrating 50 Years of Excellence: Empowering the Next Generation of Leaders.” This year’s conference will take place October 8-11, 2025, in Orlando, Florida. The conference will be held at the beautiful Renaissance Orlando at Seaworld.

At this year’s conference you will have an opportunity to strengthen your skills through engaging, interactive sessions and events that will delve into the areas of advocacy, inclusion, innovation, and workforce development. Each session is curated to include presenters that provide hands on experiences, expertise and access to valuable resources to enhance your leadership toolkit.

Our all-inclusive, retreat-style conference will continue with health and wellness programing, deluxe hotel accommodations, gourmet meals, special events and time to fellowship and network with conference presenters’ sponsors, and attendees.

We look forward to welcoming you to EELC!
