November 3rd | 9:15 AM
EDspaces Keynote: Make the Impossible Possible — A Blueprint for Change
William “Bill” Strickland, Founder/Executive Chairman, Manchester Bidwell Corporation
Bill Strickland has created a blueprint for building centers that help end the cycle of poverty and poor education. His legacy of ethical leadership embodies an unwavering passion for people, and the steadfast belief that if you provide the right environments and the right tools, they can—and will—perform miraculous deeds.
As the Founder and Executive Chairman of the Manchester Bidwell Corporation, Strickland inspires hope, generates jobs, and empowers citizens to become experts in any field, regardless of their circumstances. He has guided thousands of people toward employment, passion, craft, and dignity, even when it seemed like the odds were against him.
After years of trying to raise the money for what would become Manchester Bidwell and its signature training center in Pittsburgh, Strickland changed tack. He persuaded one of Pittsburgh’s leading architects to design a new arts and training center—helming a leading-edge approach to architecture in education. Then, he hit the pavement, showing the city’s business leaders, charity foundations, and public authorities why it was in their interest to fund his plan.

CSC DAY 2 KEYNOTE: Turning Agony into Action – A Father’s Journey to Make Schools Safer After the Parkland School Shooting
Max Schachter, Founder & CEO, Safe Schools for Alex
Max Schachter is a national school safety advocate. His 14-year-old son, Alex, was one of the 17 innocent victims murdered in the Parkland school shooting on Valentine’s Day 2018. Since the heartbreaking day that changed Max’s life forever, he has been fighting for policy change at the highest levels of the United States government.
Through Safe Schools For Alex, the 501(c)(3) organization he created to honor his son, he provides the most-current school safety leading practices to students, parents, school districts, and law enforcement so that all children can learn in a safe environment. Max’s unique style of presentation shows his pain, vulnerability, and unrelenting drive for accountability during the three years since his son’s murder. Max speaks not only from the perspective of a father of a victim of mass violence. He also is member of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission that was formed by the Governor or Florida to investigate the worst high school shooting in United States history.
Max will share his in-depth knowledge of the failures, lessons learned, and measures taken to make Florida’s schools safer after the Parkland massacre.
