SPSP Launches New Summer Seminar |
Just after the annual convention the SPSP Board of Directors approved plans to roll out a new Summer Seminar starting in 2019. SPSP will release a call for proposals from its members to host a collaborative two-day experience that focuses on a topic that crosses sub-disciplinary boundaries. Proposals will be evaluated on multiple factors with preference given to those that specifically highlight diversity of attendees, speakers, and ideas. This smaller program for 200-300 people is specifically designed to encourage alternate formats for interaction other than the traditional formats seen at the annual convention each year. Stay tuned for more information and keep an eye out for the call for proposals this fall! |
