Strengthening Community by Lifting the Voices of Indigenous Special Education Staff Webinar Series
The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) and the Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College encourage Native special education staff, special education staff, administrators, special education directors, special education coordinators and all others interested to attend a webinar series intended to strengthen community by lifting the voices of Indigenous special education staff.
Certificates will be sent to all participants who register, attend the live webinar, and complete the feedback survey. BOSA Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are also available. BOSA CEUs require attendance in three sessions and completed surveys for each session (three sessions equal one BOSA CEU).
Although webinar sessions are being recorded, the sessions will not be released until they are edited and captioned. Once available, a notice will be sent to those who have registered.
