The 1/2 day or 4 hour trainings are designed with two objectives in mind.
1. If you can only get away for 1/2 day, you will come back with 4 rather than 3 continuing education units.
2. If you can get away for the full day, then you can earn 8 continuing education units rather than the typical 6.
Therefore the scheduling is a binge challenging. The morning (am) workshops will begin at 8:00am sharp with
registration being from 7:30am - 8:00am and we will be done with the morning portion no later than 12:00 noon.
The afternoon sessions: registration from 12:30pm - 1:00pm. The workshop will begin at 1:00PM sharp. If you
have already registered for the morning session, you may register for the afternoon during the morning session.
The afternoon sessions will conclude at 5:00pm.
