    These Pre-Conference workshops are designed to provide in-depth training and collaboration prior to the conference.  In the morning, three six-hour workshops are offered and later in the day there is one four-hour workshops.  If you attend both the morning and afternoon sessions, you can accumulate 10 PDPs.  Note:  You can attend the Thursday, Pre-Conference workshops without attending the full Conference.  We provide this flexibility so that more of our members can take advantage of our Conference offerings.

    Workshops are listed by numbers.  For full details please check here.
