BGSU is one of five regional summits to be held across Ohio and requires registration in order to attend

The summit will work collectively with education, community, business and government leaders to develop solutions for attracting and retaining teachers in the northwest Ohio region. Participants will also raise awareness of the implications of the shortage, including the direct effect on economic vitality and quality of life. 

Dean of the BGSU College of Education and Human Development, Dr. Dawn Shinew explained how every student deserves a teacher who supports their education and that solutions can only be found by working together.
