How does an online conference work?
Featuring over 50 speakers, 100+ workshops, and more!
Workshop sessions are prerecorded and can be watched from the comfort of your home whenever you want. Unlike an on-site convention where you have to pick and choose your sessions, you’ll have access to EVERY SINGLE workshop for an entire year.
Our Virtual Vendor Hall is full of homeschooling resources, special pricing, freebies, and much more.
Thankful for all this free content?
