Continuing Education Credit Update
On behalf of the Texas Association of School Administrators and the Texas Association of School Boards, we wanted to make you aware that not all sessions offered at txEDCON 2025 will be eligible for continuing education credit due to a new State Board of Education (SBOE) rule.
Last November, the SBOE approved new board training rules that require each individual to become a registered provider of training credit. In the past, presenters were able to offer credit for their sessions under the umbrella of registered organizations like TASA and TASB.
This new requirement takes effect Aug. 25, 2025, but because of printing deadlines, the txEDCON Program will not distinguish between sessions led by registered providers (and therefore can offer credit) and others. For updated information during the event on sessions that offer credit, visit Registration on site or download the txEDCON app. For questions regarding CEC, email CEC@tasb.org.
We have accepted a wide variety of sessions to support your growth as a trustee, and we're confident that you will be able to craft a schedule that meets your minimum training credit requirements. Thank you for your understanding as we comply with this new state rule.
