This conference, held annually in March since 1992, is recognized nationally as your best opportunity to learn workable solutions and practical answers to your pressing questions about transporting children with special needs - from preschool to transition services.    view daily schedule 
Interacting with more than 30 experts and your colleagues, you'll satisfy what many transporters say is their biggest concern:
                                    Doing what is right and knowing what "right" is.

Separate-fee workshops
In addition to the main conference, an Executive Briefing and two 8-hour Workshops are offered. These sessions focus on vital topics of interest to both regular and special needs transporters.
