SkyCon 2026

Representatives from IMRF will be presenting about IMRF benefits for IMRF employees.

For Illinois educators, quality student data is essential, and turning that information into action is  the real challenge. As AI tools become more powerful, the districts that will see the biggest impact are those that can connect the dots between data systems, student needs, and timely interventions. That’s why Panorama Education and Skyward have partnered to deliver leading AI and MTSS tools for Illinois Skyward districts.

In this session, explore how this partnership is making it easier for districts to put their data to work; securely, seamlessly, and at scale. You’ll hear how tighter integrations and interoperable data flows can help educators get a more complete picture of each student, access AI-powered insights, and strengthen MTSS practices. District leaders will also share how they’re using these tools today to address real challenges and create better outcomes for students.

You’ll walk away with:

• A clear picture of why integrated, interoperable data is essential in the AI era.
• Practical examples of how this partnership enables smarter, faster interventions for students.
• District stories about the impact of AI and MTSS tools in Illinois classrooms.
