NCAIS TECH CONFERENCE - "A History"** Begun in 2006, the NCAIS Tech Conference was born in 2005 when Jason Ramsden (The Hill Center), Laura Sanders (The Trinity School of Durham), and Matt Scully (Providence Day) approached then Executive Director of NCAIS, Gordon Bingham, about a need for NCAIS Technology Folks to meet annually to share and collaborate. From its early stages to today, the conference has been a grass roots effort to bring independent school technologists from North Carolina independent schools together for a day of sharing.

Today, NCAIS TECH is moving toward bringing technologists, media specialists, teachers, and administrators together to share ideas about 21st Century Learning while learning tips, tricks, and tactics that can be used to help integrate technology everyday in K-12 classrooms.
