Looking for focused, affordable, and effective professional development solutions? NECC Workshops provide a variety of options to help meet individual, school, or district staff development and technology planning needs. Advanced registration and additional fees are required.

Enrollment is limited because of equipment and other constraints. And there's always a big demand! So register early and select alternates in case your first choice is full. Workshop fees are based on length and are in addition to regular conference registration fees.

NECC workshops take place onsite at the convention center and at the offsite locations listed below. Participants should check the ticket located on their NECC name badge sheet for their specific workshop location.
