Spring Time – Conference Time

Spring is in the air and it’s home education conference time! I’m excited to be heading to the NCHEA Conference this weekend, where dd#5 will be recognized with the other graduates this year, and also plan to attend the CHEC Conference in Denver in June.

Home ed conferences are our “teacher training” and encouragement to keep on keeping on. I believe we all need this kind of boost each year. There are two types of home ed conferences. The first type is a general conference, such as the state conferences are. They cover many types of home education and reach out to all. The second type is a specialized conference geared toward a particular approach to home education. They are generally more helpful in the practical application of home educating in the style you choose. Both are important, as each provides for different needs.

Although I highly recommend “getting out” to a conference where you can see and handle the resources and visit face to face with the vendors and workshop presenters and meet other home educating parents face to face, I know that isn’t always possible for everyone every year.  If this is a year you “can’t go”, there are still options for you. In my next couple of post, we’ll explore a couple of those options, both a general and a specialized conference. Stay tuned.

For today, Are you planning on attending a Home Education Conference this year? Which one/where? What do you like best about home ed conferences? Post your replies in the comments.
