Looking Back on the 2022 Ed-Fi Summit

Last week several members of the EdGraph team headed off to Austin, TX to attend our SEVENTH Ed-Fi Summit (an annual conference that connects state and local education leaders, ed-tech providers, educators, and technical experts who are using data to solve education’s most entrenched problems)!

Seeing the community balloon from just a few districts and a handful of vendors, to a room filled with 700+ attendees truly shows the positive impact of the Ed-Fi standard on LEAs and state agencies throughout the country. Thank you to the Ed-Fi Alliance!

We had a great time reconnecting with old friends and making new ones. It was invaluable to hear directly from education organizations about their unique needs and situations, as well as putting our heads together with other Ed-Fi community leaders to come up with innovative solutions to those scenarios.

Our CTO, Jean-Francois Guertin, participated in a couple of conversations over the course of the Summit. One with Gene Garcia of Microsoft entitled "Data Validation that Scales". He was also part of the Closing Panel discussion, "The Next Decade of Data Analytics".
