National Conference


WHAT IS THE NATIONAL CONFERENCE? 
Immerse yourself in Kodály education by attending our annual conference! Each year OAKE hosts a Conference for professional development and honor choirs. From coast to coast, OAKE has hosted hundreds of sessions, teachers, students and guests. The OAKE National Conference is held in an OAKE Division and hosted by a local OAKE Chapter.
