TechKnowledgy is back and we’re celebrating 23+ years of inspiring others! This three-day conference provides an opportunity to learn new information, practice new skills, engage in maker’s activities, network, and gather and share resources about assistive and inclusive technology through a variety of sessions and workshops.

Participants will not only learn about evidence-based assistive technology in educational, vocational, and community settings with learners for all ages and abilities, but will walk away with skills that equip them to implement these practices in their day-to-day work.

Target Audience:  Whether you are a novice or an expert, in general education or special education, this conference is designed for you!  We’re inviting anyone to attend who supports students with disabilities (PreK-12), including teachers, paraprofessionals, related services personnel, assistive technology team members, instructional technology specialists, coaches, administrators, family members and others who are inspired to build independence and self-advocacy skills in their students.  

Come learn and share your passion for assistive and inclusive technology with others!
