October 12, 2017

As you all know, we are now required to complete 40 hours of PD every year as part of our annual professional development goals. It can be difficult to find opportunities that are accessible, close, or even challenging enough to make the experience worthwhile.

So, if you’re looking for something worthwhile, this summit might be your answer!
