21NTC Agenda
Please note: All times on our agenda are Pacific.
Tuesday
7:45am - 8:00am
NTC Kickoff
Join us for a welcome message where we'll preview what to expect from the first day of the NTC and how to get the most out of your time at the NTC.
8:00am - 8:30am
Warm-up Activities
Get yourself ready for a day of education and networking with yoga, meditation, and active sessions.
Day 1 Coffee Chat
Warm up for a day of sessions and connections by enjoying your coffee or a snack as a community. No slides, no presentation, nothing formal. This daily session will include community members sharing their excitement for 21NTC, talking about tips and ideas they picked up in breakout sessions, and more. Just as you may have eavesdropped on conversations with table mates in-person, this is a chance to listen in on what others are thinking about and learning at the conference without any expectation that you turn your own video on. Bridget Jackson and Farra Trompeter will host each day with a rotating line up of community member guests. See who's joining on day 1.
Community Conversations
In between all the educational sessions are informal conversations ranging from the professional to the fun. Suggest a topic for small group networking!

Closing Dance Party!
The last few days have been a whirlwind, so before we all part, join us for a dance party in Zoom so we can all shake out some of the adrenaline built up over the last few days and get our last giggles out of the NTC. We encourage you all to unplug your headphones, invite your families if you are at home, bring pets, or colleagues, and move your bodies in ways that you feel comfortable to dance our way out of the NTC.
2:30pm - 2:45pm
Farewell Message
Join us for a final session of thanks, opportunities to continue learning and engaging in the NTEN community, and plans for the future.
