Conferences, 'Cons, Virtuals, PDs, Instructional Days, Bootcamps, Fireside Chats.
Whatever you call them, they fill us with ideas, knowledge and a burning desire to get back into action and put what we have learned into practice. Often we leave and our wheels are spinning faster than the day or conference itself.
But how does one know about all of these amazing opportunities? Especially now as we've come out of a pandemic and we begin to return to in-person gatherings (HALLELUJAH!), and with more virtual or hybrid sessions as an option, allowing affordability and accessibility for many who wouldn't have been able to attend otherwise.
Let's create a space to post our local and regional Canvas days for the Community.
First and foremost, make sure you register for InstructureCon in Denver before you start exploring any other conferences and PD! You won't regret it! Also, feel free to use this space to post comments for meet-ups, etc. That's the best part!
Post what you know! (Please one conference per reply.)
