Outstanding SENIA Virtual Conference

The Special Education Network and Inclusion Association (SENIA) is offering an outstanding virtual conference December 2-4. Keynoters include Dr. Katie Novak, Cornelius Minor, and Dr. Temple Grandin!

The conference experience is based around four strands with ace facilitators lined up:

-Growing Inclusive Practices (UDL/EAL/Sensory/Twice Exceptional Learners)

-Nurturing Diversity (Gender & Sexuality/Safe Spaces/BIPOC Experiences/Intersectionality)

-Building Better Programs (Policies/Data/Testing/Documentation/IEPs)

-Fostering SEL (Brain science behind behavior/pandemic effects/wellness)

The cost is only $250 USD, which would come from our individual Professional Learning Allowances. If we register more than 10 people, this comes down to $150 USD, what a deal! Please take a look and speak with Kasson or Tanya (our very own SENIA Board Member!) for more information.

When you are ready to register, please complete the Professional Learning Tracking Form and Kasson will sign you up. Simple as that!
