TAKE THE STAGE AT CONNECTING THE DOTS 2024


Calling all industry thought leaders to share insights, experience, and to suggest topic ideas for the must-attend Connecting the Dots mega events of the year. Connecting the Dots is Canada's largest educational and professional development conference focused on education, technology, and employment for people who are blind or partially sighted. 

Organized by CNIB, the conference features thought-provoking workshops, keynote presentations, lightning talks and panel discussions on a variety of topics connected to the conference theme ‘The Way Forward”.
