ATLE Board Appoints Cathy King as Executive Director

Cathy has spent the past 30 years developing innovative education programs to support a variety of learning communities across Alberta and Canada. As Vice President, of Netera Alliance (now Cybera), she had the opportunity to develop Alberta's Cyberinfrastructure Whitepaper and Framework to help propel Netera Alliance into Cybera. She brought the vision of 2Learn.ca's Provincial Videoconference Network to reality and supported teacher leaders throughout the province. More recently, as Amii's Managing Director of Education, she and her team built out the portfolio of training curriculum to support Amii's training and development objectives. Cathy thrives on building partnerships and collaborations to help propel learning communities forward. Through her extensive leadership and organizational development training, Cathy's extensive program development experience and her enthusiastic leadership finesse turns visions into realities. Cathy’s broad background in education and technology supports her diverse passions and interests - everything from pastoral care and spiritual direction to soccer, track and field and the quest for collecting Star Wars memorabilia.
When not passionately involved in educational developments you can find Cathy, her son and two dogs out enjoying the great outdoors either camping, hiking, biking, fishing, golfing, skiing or playing baseball, tennis, and soccer. Cathy also enjoys global travel and music with her son, jamming on the piano while he riffs on his tenor sax.
