The EduSerc Convention Center
A newly designed convention center for industry training and interactive learning

The EduSerc Convention Center at Laurel Lakes

In 1996, EduSerc had a vision to build a place where education could be re-defined as a self-sustainable, innovative industry that re-defines how to approach industry development. EduSerc is now closer to that dream more than ever with the instantiation of our very own campus for our fellow nonprofit and business partners to serve the community.

Known as the EduSerc Convention Center (ECC), this facility will host up to 552+ individuals, be centrally located in the Washington DC/Baltimore/Northern Virginia corridor in the heart of Laurel, MD and will serve as this area’s newest innovative center for activities, galas, trainings, product simulations, video productions and events designed to benefit educational and workforce development initiatives.

Proceeds from each event hosted at this venue will directly benefit community-based initiatives in education, will provide pipeline workforce training opportunities and will strengthen the economic development of the surrounding communities.
