One of the silver linings of moving professional learning opportunities, such as conferences, onto virtual platforms is that it breaks down some of the barriers (financial, travel, family commitments) that many of us have that prevent our attendance.  This year the Assistive Technology Industry Association (ATIA) is offering its national conference online, but is also offering a FREE registration tier.  In this episode, Matt discusses some of the resources available through this free opportunity, how to sign up for it, and how the TTAC and Virginia Tech will offer extensions to learn more.
