2008 Regional Workshops

P. Teresa Farnum

4 locations, 10 Cutting-Edge Sessions

Every summer, TFA goes on the road to conduct workshops related to retention and recruitment. Past locations have included: Seattle, Denver, Minneapolis, Chicago, Atlanta, New Orleans, Boston, and Miami.

Having facilitated more than 200 workshops, I understand that participants need opportunities to discuss strategies related to their unique situations–not just listen to the presenter. Accordingly, our workshops reflect that philosophy and offer the following popular features:

• Highly interactive
• Structured networking opportunities
• Activities to take home to campus
• Session membership capped to insure maximum group interaction and participation
• A la carte session selection and fee structure–you choose and pay ONLY for those sessions of interest to you.

Join me, enhance your repertoire of success strategies, network with colleagues from other campuses…and have fun!

NEW for 2008! – An expanded 5-day schedule and 7 new sessions never before offered:

• Student Success in e-Learning
• Building Momentum—Keys to Supporting Persistence and Graduation among Underprepared College Students
• Affirming a Diversity-Friendly Campus Community
