2025 OSPA Fall Conference is returning to a Two-Day Conference!
November 5th - 7th, 2025
Supporting Every Student: Cultural Responsiveness and Threat Prevention
This year's conference will be focused on equipping school psychologists with the tools, knowledge, and strategies needed to foster safe, inclusive, and supportive learning environments for all students, with an emphasis on working with our English Language Learner (ELL) population and more comprehensive training regarding threat prevention. The conference will feature expert-led sessions with Dr. Erich Merkle on the ethics of confidentiality on Wednesday evening. Thursday will be focused on working with our ELL population with Dr. Sam Ortiz and a dedicated panel of Ohio based practitioners to answer questions regarding our work with ELL students. And Friday will be dedicated to comprehensive school threat assessments by Jim Feger.
We will also be providing a DEW update by two of our state school psychologist consultants on Thursday morning before the start of Thursday's sessions.
We hope to open registration by the end of August!
