Attendees participate in training workshops, panel discussions, interactive sessions, demonstrations, and have opportunities to engage with industry professionals and experts in the field. The conference aims to enhance the VE program in classrooms by providing new resources, tools, and insights for educators to prepare their students. We look forward to your participation!
