Adobe Education Leaders Program
Adobe believes in investing in education and educators. The Adobe Education Leader (AEL) program highlights the successes and contributions of innovative educators involved in Higher Education (Post-secondary – Public and Private Universities, Community Colleges, Vocational Schools) and K-12 Education (Primary and Secondary) utilizing Adobe tools and applications.
The Adobe Education Leaders are dedicated to enhancing creativity, communication, and collaboration and improving the teaching and learning experience. As new products are developed or existing products are revised, the Education Leaders are involved in beta programs and weekly webinars on a range of technology and program topics. They are asked for feedback, invited to participate in focus groups, and are among the fi rst to support learning objectives through the effective use of the technology. As leaders in their fi eld, they are dedicated to creating a dynamic learning environment for students and establishing best practices for other faculty and teachers, which impacts the broader education community.
Adobe Youth Voices Program Adobe Youth Voices (AYV) engages talented educators of middle and high school age youth in a yearlong youth media professional development and support program. AYV educators, in both in-school and out-of school programs, gain skills to enable youth to use digital tools to create media with a personally meaningful purpose.
