ALL ABOARD THE TECHNOLOGY TRAIN – HEADED FOR SUCCESS
The 2024 DC-MD AER Spring Conference, in conjunction with Maryland State Steering
Friday, March 8, 2023
8:00 am – 5:00 pm
Maritime Conference Center — 692 Maritime Blvd, Linthicum Heights, MD 21090
In this unique conference experience, groups will sit in a room with vendors for four hour-long workshops and find answers to the following questions:
How can technology help me with my shopping?
How can technology help me with my school work (including college)?
How can technology help me get and keep my job?
How can technology help me with my hobby?
Plus our fabulous awards banquet lunch, and, thanks to a generous donation from DGM &CLM Memorial Endowment, a keynote address from Sam Seavey of The Blind Life.
You’ll have fun, you’ll make friends, and you’ll learn some stuff. What more do you need? Plus, it’s even cheaper than last year.
$80 DC-MD AER members | $110 non-members
We will be applying for 5 ACVREP hours.
