The C3 Conference is a professional development event for educators in Maryland and the mid-Atlantic region. The core mission of the C3 Conference is to inform the educational community about the ethical, legal, safety, and security implications of technology use and illustrate how educators and parents can apply these concepts to their own setting.

Participants will hear from state and local educators, law enforcement, internet safety/security curriculum providers, researchers, and policy makers on a broad range topics to include: current and pending legislation, educational initiatives available, the latest "hot topics" to include cyberbullying, identity theft and sexting, internet safety provider updates, online reputation management, wireless and social networking security, newly released online interactive simulations and games that promote responsible online behavior, research based promising practices for the prevention of bullying and harassment, C3 framework and matrix, and much more.
