Workshop Proposals

We are soliciting proposals for workshops for our annual meeting which will be
held February 17th-19th in Grand Junction Colorado. Workshops will occur on
the first day of the meeting, Tuesday the 17th. We are asking for proposals for
full day (8 hours) or half day (4 hours) workshops, and will provide you with a
classroom style room at the Grand Junction Convention Center.

Please include in your workshop proposal:

• A brief (250 word) description of the workshop and how it will benefit CCTWS members

• The maximum number of people you would like to attend your workshop

• Any audio/visual equipment you would need for your workshop (powerstrips, a presentation screen etc.).

 

Note: CCTWS charges a nominal fee for workshops, $10 a person, to pay for space at the conference center and hold spots for individuals attending your workshop. Workshop presenters are volunteers and will not be compensated for leading workshops. Also note that the conference center does not allow outside food to be brought in (e.g., coffee, bagels, or lunch).
