EdTech Webinar Series

The Educational Technology Department is excited to present the 2025–26 EdTech Webinar Series.
Our monthly learning sessions are designed to inspire and support Fresno Unified educators as they bring meaningful and engaging technology into everyday instruction. Each webinar offers practical ideas that connect to district goals and the Technology Scope and Sequence, helping teachers build confidence and clarity around digital learning.
The series is created for all TK–12 educators, whether they are exploring new digital tools or looking for fresh ways to innovate in the classroom. Every session includes guided support, opportunities for hands‑on exploration, and follow‑up resources that educators can use right away. Recordings and resources from previous webinars are available below on the webinar webpage, making it easy to learn at any time.
Attending webinars are voluntary and open to all staff. These sessions do not include compensation, but they consistently provide high‑value ideas, inspiration, and tools that help strengthen teaching and learning across the district.
