It's Conference Time!
Greetings GAEA!
It's spring in Georgia and that means it's almost time for another GAEA Annual Meeting! This year the meeting is scheduled for May 12, 2009.
Central Georgia Technical College will host what we believe will be our first
ever drive-in, one day conference. Given recent events and their impact on all
programs we felt that it was more important than ever to gather and discuss the
timely and important issues facing continuing education in Georgia. But, with
cuts to travel budgets and heavier workloads, a lengthy conference just
wasn’t possible.
 So this year, in support of our membership, we are pleased to announce a one-day
meeting, free to our members, where we highlight and discuss the topics burning
in the minds of Georgia’s CE leaders. Appropriately, our theme is HOT!
HOT! HOT!
Yes, I said "Free"!
In our recent survey many members indicated that travel and conference fees just
weren’t in the budget. But students aren’t the only ones who should
update their skills and knowledge. Educators and program planners must also
expand their expertise. Our program planners rallied their arguments and
convinced the board that GAEA should foot the bill for this gathering. A paid 2009
membership to GAEA this year will include all conference fees.
Who should plan to attend this conference? Anybody who wants to discuss exciting trends, pitfalls to avoid, and potential growth opportunities for lifelong learning should register. In a single day we’ll discuss a wide range of topics, none of which you’ll want to miss. Watch our website for announcements and please make plans to attend. The strength of GAEA is based in representation from all BOR and TCES schools. We’ve gone the extra mile to make it easy and hope you’ll join us in Macon.
