ECCEN 2023: Understanding the times and knowing what to do

We would like to invite you, as Christian school leader, school board, politician, or teacher to our European Conference for Christian Education in the Netherlands (ECCEN).

March 15-17, 2023
Apeldoorn, the Netherlands

We live in a pluralistic and diverse society. How do we deal with the spirit of our times? What is our mission in this society as Christians and as Christian educators? At this year’s conference we hope to try to interpret and unmask the ‘zeitgeist’. It is important to recognise influences, be prepared and stay close to our calling! We aim to be a blessing by being salt and light in our communities, but how do we practice what we preach?

As Christian educators, we need to understand the present times and prepare ourselves and our students. Are we equipping our students through our curriculum and learning communities to be that salt and light? Moreover, the way that we approach this situation will depend on how God’s Word is working within us.

This present situation in today’s society urges us to meet together. We extend a warm invitation to European educators to join us at the 4th ECCEN conference hosted in Apeldoorn in the Netherlands. There will be lots of opportunities to meet, talk and share inspirational and practical examples.

Join us to find guidance for your teaching practice and help build a strategic vision in your management boards that shows others the reason for the hope you have.

A warm welcome to all!

Registration is now open. Please register via our website!

What is ACSI?

Strong and Courageous: The Impact of SLC 2026

This last month, students and teachers from Christian schools across Europe gathered for the 2026 Student Leadership Conference (SLC). Over three events, two weeks in Hungary and one in the UK, young people from more than 50 Christian schools worshipped together, studied God's Word, attended practical leadership workshops and met in small discussion groups led by their peers.

Spain's Christian Schools Take Steps Toward a National Federation

Evangelical Christian schools in Spain are preparing to take a significant step together. At the 5th Forum on Christ-Centred Education, held in Barcelona on 30–31 October 2026, educators will be presented with a project to form a national federation of Protestant Christian schools.

The week after SLC

The week after SLC or any event that challenges student growth is a huge opportunity - don't miss it! Many of our students are teenagers in European schools where living out a Christian faith can be difficult, where speaking up takes courage that does not come naturally, where identifying as a Christ-follower may not be received be warmly. How will we as teachers and school leaders engage them in their next steps of faith and leadership?

ACSI Europe Art Show Winners 2026

We would like to congratulate all the wonderful students who participated in our first ACSI Europe Art Show responding to the theme of "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.". We were very encouraged to receive over 60 art pieces from schools all across Europe — a remarkable debut for this new tradition.
