What is EDGE?

EDGE is the bold evolution of JAG’s National Training Seminar. It’s where educators, youth leaders, employers, and community changemakers converge to co-create the future of education and workforce development. Expect scenario-based learning, immersive labs, cutting-edge content, and high-impact networking.

Business casual. Award Reception attendees are encouraged to dress in cocktail attire or business formal attire.
