Together with the 2009 SAMEA Conference, we will once again present Professional Development Workshops

SAMEA Professional Development Workshops are hands-on, interactive sessions that provide an opportunity to learn new skills or hone existing skills prior to SAMEA’s August 2009 conference.

Professional development workshops precede the conference. These workshops differ from sessions offered during the conference itself in at least three ways:

1.     each is longer (either half day, full day or two days long) and thus provides a more in-depth exploration of a skill or area of knowledge,

2.     presenters are paid for their time and are expected to have significant experience both presenting and in the subject area, and

3.     participants pay separately for these workshops and are given the opportunity to evaluate the experience.

Sessions are filled on a first-come, first-served basis and most are likely to fill before the conference begins.

REGISTRATION: Registration for professional development workshops will be handled as part of the conference registration forms; however, you may register for professional development workshops even if you are not attending the conference itself (still using the regular conference registration forms - just uncheck the conference registration box).
