Please visit

for a complete listing of workshops available at the conference. You
will notice that all of the workshops are broken down into 1½ hour
session; however, the actual time of each workshop varies in length.
Pay special attention to how many parts there are to the workshop. Out
of respect for the presenter and other conference attendees, we
request that you stay for the entirety of the workshop. Priority will
be given to conference attendees that attended the initial part(s) of
the session.
CLOTHING SWAP
Getting tired of the same old clothes? Please bring items you think
others will value but that you no longer wear, then swap! It is
essential that items are cleaned and presented neatly! Clothes left at
the end of the evening will be donated to a local charity.
Our fashion show on Saturday night will feature our very own
conference attendees! It will be an eye-opening lesson on what to wear
and what not to wear on assignment.
Also featuring, our very own clothing swap. The clothing swap will
take place right after the fashion show.
CONFERENCE INTERPRETERS NEEDED
We are in need of a few on-call interpreters, to accommodate our
on-site conference attendees. You can request to be on-call for the
entire day or just for an hour and a half or so. On-call interpreters
are paid $2.00/hour for being on-call ($30/hour if their services are
needed). Interpreters must be KQAS Level 4/5 or equivalent. Please
