Saturday Seminars
For-a-Fee Sessions
These Saturday Seminars focus on intermediate skill level workshops of a single topic. Each will be stand-alone in content with lots of hands-on, practical, application-oriented skill development. Topics will be extracted from feedback from participants at PD Meetings and our Annual Conference… expanding time and depth of working knowledge.
Instructors will be selected based on personal working experience, to assure you walk away with not just concepts (the foundation of knowledge) but skills you can use on the job immediately.
Topics will be announces at PD Meetings and through eNewsletters 2-4 months in advance. Each session is expected to be 4-7 hours. A per person fee will be charged (~$47-77), with advance reservations required and a minimum of 10 participants before declaring the seminar a ‘GO’ status.
