All of the forms for registering for the
Convention, making presentations, volunteering,
securing an exhibit booth, or reserving a hotel room are available in
printable formats as PDF files. You'll also find directions to help you

Steering Committee, click on "Contact Us" on the left menu bar.
Nearly all of the programs and activities at the Science Convention will
qualify as credit toward your 100 hours professional development
obligation. As you plan your PIP for next year don't forget to keep the
Convention in mind. You may even be able to get credit for visiting a
vendor on the convention floor, especially if you are planning to adopt a
new text, seeking new equipment, or redesigning your lab facilities. Be
sure to discuss this with your supervisor and include it in your PIP.
Plan now for future conventions!
