Convention Update

Thank you for attending the 54th Annual NAGC Convention.

Information on next year's conference in Tampa and the call for papers will be available soon.


NAGC's 10,000 Ideas in the Land of 10,000 Lakes!


In the land of 10,000 lakes, we invite you to cross the threshold of 10,000 ideas and innovations. There's a certain magic that happens but once a year - each November - when the world of gifted descends upon one city. How could we not emerge with a plethora of ideas? The program committee has programmed 350 sessions and booked Dean Keith Simonton as the opening keynote and Minnesota's favorite son, Garrison Keillor to close. Now that's a pair of convention bookends!

This year, the National Association for Gifted Children will hold its 54th Annual Convention in Minneapolis, MN. This presents a unique opportunity to hear from the authoritative voices in gifted education. The program is rich in content and scope with presentations focusing on differentiation, rigorous curriculum and the social and emotional needs of high-ability learners.

The world of gifted education will gather for three days to listen, learn, relax, and revive, surrounded by colleagues who are all striving to ensure that the unique educational needs of gifted children are met.
