Conferences that Focus Specifically On Students with Behavior Disorders
Want to get
reinvigorated? Attending a conference, meeting other professionals
who work with our kids, attending sessions and conversing with "the experts"
can re-energize us. It's great to return to the classroom with new
ideas to try out. Ask your district if they have some money to help
you with travel/registration expenses. Some districts will pay for
you to attend conferences if you are presenting a session at it.
Some conferences offer college credit or "cu's".
Hey!...Why not
devise a workshop with a colleague and present some of the things that
work for you? Then look through the web sites and journals of the
professional groups you see below to find out when the next conference
is being held (and the date by which you must submit your proposal
to present at it). It's time to share your tips with
others.
