Educators attending the AP Conference leave armed with strategies to become more effective economic educators. This national conference also offers a forum for networking with other AP teachers from across the country, as well as outstanding keynote speakers. Keynote speakers at the past conferences have included Al Broaddus, Edward Gramlich, Gregory Mankiw, Benjamin Bernanke, Nobel Laureate Vernon Smith, and Kevin Warsh.
