The Council sponsors a Special Topic Pre-Conference the day before the annual meeting.
The Council sponsors an annual Math Contest that includes regional competitions and state finals.
In order to promote mathematics teaching as a career, the Council awards scholarships to outstanding college students. ICTM Awards are given to honor outstanding contributions to mathematics education in Illinois.
As an affiliate of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, ICTM works to promote professional standards on the national level.
In Illinois, the Council works with its Cooperative and Affiliate Groups and the Illinois State Board of Education to improve mathematics and the teaching of mathematics.
