ERDI is the premier provider of unique research and development and networking opportunities for companies who are designing products and services to support PK-12 education. ​​

Based on feedback from our membership all 4 ERDI cohorts (Superintendents, Assistant/Deputy Superintendents, CAOs/CTOs) will continue participate in events together Catalyzed by COVID, this joining of cohorts has been a real silver lining. With multiple perspectives at the R&D table, conversations have been enriched and participants experience unparalleled thought leadership.
Building and Retaining a K-12 Educator Workforce: Leading for Equity

This spring, ERDI was on the stage at ASU+GSV when our CEO, Dr. Jennifer Ferrari moderated a panel with ERDI members, Dr. Adam Clark, Dr. Steve Murley, Dr. Yolanda Stanislaus, and Mr. Scott Frauenheim. During this rich discussion, members shared their insights and best practices about leading for equity and strengthening the public education workforce. 

Systems Leadership for Equity Article Series

In November of 2021, ERDI hosted its first Thought Leader Symposium: Systems Leadership for Equity. School district and industry leaders collaboratively studied and planned ways to lead for equity by building the right conditions and culture in their unique context. 

To amplify the voices of current and practicing education leaders, ERDI Emeritus Superintendents joined the symposium to capture their sentiments, highlight their challenges, and offer support and collegial camaraderie. In this article series, ERDI Emeritus Superintendents call members of the education community to action and offer salient and practical solutions for how to effectively lead for equity and serve as champions for all students.
