Friday Webinar Nov 14 - Digital Learning Outlook 2025
11/14/2025 - 11/14/2025

Join Dr. Alexandra Salas, USDLA's Public Policy Chair and President of Delmarva Digital Learning Association, a USDLA state chapter, for a forward-looking discussion on the Digital Learning Outlook 2025, focusing on how public policy is reshaping digital learning across K–12, higher education, and workforce sectors.

This webinar sets the stage for USDLA’s Public Policy Week in January 2026, where national experts and education leaders will convene for an in-depth conversation on the same critical issues. During this webinar, we’ll explore what’s changing in federal and state policy, from broadband and device access to AI ethics, digital literacy, data privacy, accessibility, and quality assurance, and discuss what these shifts mean for institutions, educators, and learners in the year ahead.

Attendees will gain practical insights into how policy changes influence program design, funding readiness, and institutional sustainability—and learn how to stay engaged in USDLA’s continuing public policy dialogue this January.
