For over two decades, this conference has provided the opportunity to bring together a broad range of audiences. Don't miss this opportunity to network with policy makers, representatives of Institutions of Higher Education and others to plan and develop the infrastructures necessary to support paraeducators and their supervisors. Numerous training sessions designed to strengthen the on-the-job performance of paraprofessionals will also be offerred.
We have made six of our publications available again, including Strengthening & Supporting Teacher/Provider- Paraeducator Teams: Guidelines for Paraeducator Roles, Supervision and Preparation. All of our manuals are affordable and full of practical advice, validated instructional strategies and training exercises.
