Let’s Talk AAC: “5 Awesome AAC Conferences Not to Miss!”

Welcome back to Let's Talk AAC! NWACS will occasionally post a question or topic along with some related information for discussion. We hope that you will join in the conversation by adding your experiences, resources, related research, etc. in comments so that we can all learn and benefit from each other's knowledge and experience.

With back-to-school just behind us, AAC Awareness Month right around the corner, and the NWACS Fall Conference in under a month, it seems like a great time to chat about some exciting AAC learning opportunities you may or may not know about.  As you consider your continuing education plan for this year (and beyond!), check out some of these awesome AAC conferences coming up this academic year!
