Comments from members who value webinars:

“I attended a TSHA webinar on ethics that I almost skipped,” TSHA Vice President for Research and Development Jyutika Mehta said. “During the session, the presenter clarified a small but critical detail on licensing regulations. A few weeks later, that exact issue surfaced from a district. Because of what I learned in that webinar, we were able to support and clarify the licensing question quickly. That experience reminded me that TSHA webinars aren’t just extra training; they often provide the practical, real-world information so that we keep current in our practice.”

“Wednesday Webinars have been the perfect solution to the conflict between my desire to learn and my hectic schedule,” Webinar Committee Chair Leslie Rainey said. “The speakers have been highly knowledgeable, and the content has been diverse and informative. I have been able to take impactful strategies directly from the webinar back into my sessions. For example, Sarah Ward’s approaches for teaching the concept of time management have been invaluable to my secondary students! I’m really looking forward to what’s coming this year, especially the presentation by Dr. Laura Austin on Pediatric Feeding Disorder (PFD) and Avoidant-Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID).”
