“Conversation with the Chairman” is a unique opportunity to join your colleagues from across the country to learn from Ben S. Bernanke, Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

During “Conversation with the Chairman,” Bernanke will address teachers nationwide via videoconference. In addition, the Chairman will take questions from educators in the audience in the 12 Federal Reserve districts.

Dallas Fed economists Harvey Rosenblum, executive vice president and director of research, and Jeff Gunther, vice president, will speak after the Chairman’s remarks and address additional questions from attendees.  This is a rare chance to bolster your understanding of the Federal Reserve System at an event designed for educators.
