National Council of Senior Leaders

Session #2:  January 27-30, 2026

The ERDI R&D Institute brings together public school district superintendents and cabinet-level leaders with innovative solution providers to collaboratively address key challenges in education.

Through a mix of executive briefings, networking events, and thought leader roundtables, participants engage in rich professional discourse. Central to the institute are its R&D panels, where ERDI Ed Leaders—who oversee some of the nation’s most complex districts—offer expert insights and feedback to solution providers while engaging in authentic dialogue surrounding our country’s top problems of practice.
