Scholarships for the 62nd Annual IDA Conference
The Annual IDA Conference is attended by more than 2,000 teachers, educators, administrators, reading specialists, researchers, university faculty, psychologists, physicians and tutors and is considered the premier professional development conference dedicated to dyslexia. Thanks to the generosity of several of IDA's partners in the learning disabilities space, including School Specialty Literacy and Intervention products by EPS, The Robert G. and Eleanor T. Hall Memorial Fund, and other generous sponsors, IDA is able to offer scholarship underwriting to enable qualified individuals to attend our Conference.
