Greg Janik, President-Elect and Program Chair has created an outstanding program offering 17.5 possible CEU’s (including 6 EBP sessions) and pre-conference workshops offering an additional 1.5 EBP credits.  Greg has thought outside the box and this year’s sessions offer a variety of topics not routinely presented which will appeal to those in all settings, including secondary schools and emerging practices.
The mission of the EATA is to provide its members with quality educational programs, as well as scholarships and research opportunities for students and certified members. Friday evening will feature the highly entertaining Student Quiz Bowl and Saturday night’s awards banquet to recognize our award winners and student scholarship recipients.
