ABOUT EVENT:
AI Governance in Education: What Schools, Districts, and EdTech Are Actually Shipping
Two to three practitioners. Fifteen minutes each. Distinct and experienced perspectives on what governing AI in education actually looks like in the classroom, a district IT office, or an EdTech product team.
Education is where AI hype meets the hardest constraints: minors' data, FERPA and COPPA obligations, academic integrity, unequal access, no money or time to address this tsunami of change, and parents and school boards who want answers in plain language. The people closest to that pressure aren't writing think pieces — they're scampering to build policy, standing up controls, and making AI defensible in environments that can't afford to get it wrong.
This forum puts them on stage, back-to-back, to show what they're building, what's working, and where education AI governance is heading next. No panels. No moderated debates. Just practitioners showing the room what comes next.
What you'll see
Student data governance in the age of AI — protecting minors' data across LMS platforms, AI tutors, and embedded vendor features, where FERPA and COPPA set the floor, not the ceiling
Shadow AI in schools and on campus — finding ungoverned AI use across student devices, faculty tools, autocomplete, and SaaS surfaces before it becomes an incident
Academic integrity without the arms race — what's actually working beyond detection tools that punish the wrong students
EdTech vendor and supply-chain transparency — making model provenance and component risk legible to districts, procurement teams, and accreditors (CycloneDX AI/ML-BOM and adjacent work)
Evidence generation for audit and insurance — turning governance activity into artifacts that satisfy boards, auditors, carriers, and the families who trust you with their kids' data
The 2026 operating environment for education — building for a world of tightening state student-privacy laws, federal activity, and insurers asking hard questions about AI exposure
Format:
3:00 PM — Doors open for the in-person event in Seattle
3:30 PM — Online Begin Bill Anderson and 2 guests introduce the topic (10 min each)

Who should attend: District CIOs and CTOs, university IT and academic leadership, Chief AI Officers, EdTech founders and product leads, compliance and privacy officers, faculty and instructional technologists, and anyone responsible for deploying AI in education that students, parents, and boards can trust and defend. If you own AI risk in a learning environment — this is the room to be in.
