National Curriculum Networking Conference

What is the National Curriculum Networking Conference?

The Center for Gifted Education's annual National Curriculum Networking Conference (NCNC) offers sessions on curriculum, instruction, programming, assessment, and advocacy for high-ability and gifted learners. NCNC also provides opportunities for networking and highlights of the newest materials, practices, and curriculum approaches that are responsive to the needs of advanced students.

In 2026, we celebrated 30 years of bringing our community together at our 30th Anniversary Conference. Now, we are ready to kick off our fourth decade of conference and we want you to be part of it - we can’t wait to see you there!
