Meet the leaders shaping Islamic education.

Sponsor the ISLA Leadership Retreat 2026 and put your organization in the room with the school leaders who decide who they work with: December 4–6 at the Diyanet Center of America, just outside Washington, D.C.

  • 100School leaders attended in 2025
  • 42Educational institutions represented
  • 17States and provinces across North America
  • 5Sponsorship packages, from $750

Why Sponsor

Talk with decision makers, not an inbox.

The retreat is a rare chance to sit down with the people who lead Islamic schools, and who often make the purchasing and vendor decisions for them. You hear their needs firsthand and show them, in person, what makes your organization valuable to their school.

Leaders come for two and a half days of interactive professional development, prayer together, dhikr, halal meals, reflection and genuine rest. It is not a conference where people sit in a room all day: they are engaged around the clock, and so is every sponsor in the room.
