MMEA sponsors several professional development conferences for music educators.

The Midwinter Clinic is one of the state's largest arts education conferences and is held each February. The three-day conference features over 100 educational sessions, 35 concerts, and a full service trade show. The conference is attended by over 1300 music educators and nearly 6000 people in total. Details, plans, and registration information is found on the Midwinter Clinic page.

The Collegiate Clinic is held every other year and is free to any member of a Minnesota NAfME Collegiate Chapter. The event will be held in Fall 2013.
