They offer professional development, camaraderie and a forum to share ideas and insights. Special Area Group conferences and workshops present the best ideas from the brightest minds in teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SAGEs do much more than sponsor the extensive professional development conferences. They reinforce personal professional development activities by helping develop on-going skills in a friendly, non-competitive environment. Visit a group\u2019s page for more information, including fees and contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SAGEs provide professional development opportunities as part of their mandate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600\">Special Area Groups of Educators<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-grid wp-container-core-group-is-layout-baef362d wp-block-group-is-layout-grid\">\n<ul style=\"background-color:#dbeef0\" class=\"wp-block-list has-background\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mbteach.org\/mtscms\/index.php\/acem\/\"><em>ACEM<\/em><\/a><\/strong> &#8211;
