5 Great Special Education Groups on LinkedIn

Special Needs Groups on LinkedInWhen you think of LinkedIn you usually think of professionals; lawyers, business people, looking to make connections to help grow their respective field or business. Alternatively you think of LinkedIn as a place to share your resume in hopes of getting a new job. One piece of LinkedIn that is often overlooked is LinkedIn Groups. LinkedIn Groups, gathers people with common interests on a variety of topics. Groups members share and discuss items that are of interest to group members. With 871,00 active groups on LinkedIn you will be sure to find the topics that interest you. Of those 871,000 groups there are thousands dedicated to special needs topics. Over the next month  we will feature active groups that focus on specific special needs segments. Today we are proud to bring you 5 Great Special Education Groups on LinkedIn (some of the groups require approval by the group administrator before you join the group. This is usually a formality and may take a day or two before you are approved.)
