We would like to highlight all the wonderful breakout sessions available to participants at the Ohio Early Childhood Special Education Conference on June 3, 2016 at the Ohio Union located at The Ohio State University in Columbus. Because of the Ohio DEC’s partnership with the Ohio Department of Education and State Support Team, we have advocated for the use and alignment to the DEC Recommended Practices (RP) at this conference. Below you will find the list that includes the single all day session as well as the morning session speakers, titles, approvals and their alignments to DEC (2014) Recommended Practices (Available here: Free Download).
