The NAMTA conference series provides an opportunity for Montessori practitioners to deepen their understanding of Montessori practice from birth through adolescence. Speakers present the continuum of Montessori’s living tradition. NAMTA responds to contemporary needs while preserving the fullness of Montessori’s original insights and design. We strive to keep our members firmly rooted in Montessori principles and implementation, while promoting innovations within the parameters of the field.

Cost for NAMTA members to attend October 2010 through April 2011 conferences is $300 ($315 after deadline).

Conference announcements, including registration materials, are mailed approximately four to six weeks prior to each conference. Online registration usually begins about four to six weeks prior to the conference; check this site for full conference schedules and registration materials. To be included on the mailing list, contact NAMTA with your name, address, and the conference in which you are interested.
