Wise Webinar Series
The Wise Webinar Series provides engaging and accessible learning opportunities centered on transition, supported employment and community inclusion services. Each session features diverse presenters from across the United States and beyond, offering valuable information, resources, and ideas. We are also focused on promoting and highlighting presenters with lived experience.
Every webinar includes ASL interpretation and accessible content to ensure an inclusive experience for all attendees. Participants gain new knowledge, share insights, and have the opportunity to earn continuing education credits while strengthening their professional development.
The series runs from October through June, with live webinars held every Wednesday from 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM PT. They are funded by the Washington State Developmental Disabilities Administration and offered at no cost to the public.

- Gain knowledge and practical strategies related to transition, supported employment, and community inclusion services.
- Learn from diverse perspectives, including those with lived experience as well as national and international leaders in the field.
- Explore innovative tools, resources, and approaches that can be applied in your own work.
