The annual CIU 20 Summer Administrative Workshop (SAW) was held on June 18, 2026 on the campus of Northampton Community College in Bethlehem. This year's theme was "Amplifying Our Voice: Elevating the Stories that Shape our Schools" and marked the 52nd year of CIU 20 providing an annual large-scale regional professional development event that features a mix of national and regional presenters.
The opening keynote was Ross Szabo, an award-winning speaker, author, and mental health advocate who has spent more than two decades helping schools, organizations, and communities build healthier conversations around mental wellness.
Dr. Carrie Rowe, Pennsylvania's Secretary of Education, provided the mid-day keynote address.
The day featured breakout sessions with strands and topics geared toward various types of administrative roles. The SAW Planning Committee is led by Dr. Michelle Bozzini, CIU 20 Director of Professional Learning & Curriculum, and is comprised of regional administrators.
