We know budgets are tight and time is scarce. That’s why Google Educator Groups (GEGs) are such a hidden gem for professional development.

Unlike formal conferences that can cost hundreds of dollars, GEG events are free of charge and organized by volunteers who are in the classroom just like you.

Why Join a GEG for PD?

  • Continuous Learning: GEG Leaders are encouraged to host events throughout the year, ensuring a steady stream of fresh content.
  • Problem Solving: These groups act as a collaborative space to work out answers to challenges in education together—often faster than filing a support ticket.
  • Relevance: Because leaders are local, they understand your specific regional curriculum and constraints.

Pro-Tip: Many groups host 'watch parties' for major Google updates or 'demo slams' where you can learn a new trick in under 3 minutes
