Get professional development credit at our annual conferences! We focus on topics related to working with students with visual impairment. What you learn will be relevant to you and your work with students.

- Working with students with Cortical Visual Impairment
- Roundtable on teaching Orientation during the COVID-19 pandemic

- … and more!
We encourage our AMESVI members to reach out to the board. We would enjoy hearing your suggestions for conference topics.
