THE LARGEST EDUCATION TECHNOLOGY CONFERENCE IN THE REGION
EL PASO, Texas (Sept. 3, 2025) – The Education Service Center Region 19 (ESC19) is proud to announce the 2025 Sun City Ed Tech Conference, happening Thursday, September 11, 2025, from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the ESC19 Starlight Event Center, 6650 Continental Dr., El Paso, TX.
This extraordinary event, hosted in collaboration with TCEA (Texas Computer Education Association), is the largest education technology conference of its kind in the El Paso region, bringing together educators, school leaders, and IT professionals for a full day of innovation, collaboration, and hands-on exploration.
With more than 60 interactive sessions led by industry experts, the Sun City Ed Tech Conference is designed for all levels—from novice users to seasoned technology professionals. Attendees will explore cutting-edge instructional strategies, cybersecurity, device management, AI-powered tools, and scalable technology planning. This year’s keynote speaker, Corinne Hoisington, world-renowned AI and Ed Tech visionary, will inspire participants with a forward-looking vision of how technology is reshaping education.
A Unique Opportunity for Borderland Educators
Due to budget limitations, many educators are unable to travel to national conferences for professional development. The Sun City Ed Tech Conference eliminates that barrier by bringing world-class learning and technology demonstrations right here to El Paso.
Exhibitors, Technology Demonstrations, and Hands-On Exploration
Dozens of leading Ed Tech exhibitors will be on-site throughout the event, showcasing the latest hardware, software, and instructional tools. Educators will have the chance to test and explore products such as:
• Interactive smart panels and classroom displays
• Robotics kits for STEM instruction
• AI-powered learning and assessment tools
• VR/AR headsets for immersive learning experiences
• Classroom management and cybersecurity solutions
Attendees will also receive exciting Ed Tech merchandise and giveaways from vendors (examples include stylus pens, VR demos, robotics samples, branded tech gear, and classroom toolkits).
