Presenters selected for the in-person conference will also be given the opportunity to record their presentation in advance to be utilized for future KOTA monthly district meetings. Presenters who choose to provide virtual content will be asked to submit 5 learning questions that will be included after their presentation for attendees to complete in order to access their CEU certificate.
