Spring is in the air and it\u2019s home education conference time! I\u2019m excited to be heading to the NCHEA Conference<\/a> this weekend, where dd#5 will be recognized with the other graduates this year, and also plan to attend the CHEC Conference<\/a> in Denver in June.<\/p>\n

Home ed conferences are our \u201cteacher training\u201d 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.<\/p>\n

Although I highly recommend \u201cgetting out\u201d 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\u2019t always possible for everyone every year.\u00a0 If this is a year you \u201ccan\u2019t go\u201d, 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.<\/p>\n
