RFP Deadline is October 31st
We are seeking innovators, initiatives, and impact! Do YOU have something to share with the largest global audience of out-of-school time, after school, and expanded learning programs?
The BOOST Conference hosts over 150 workshop sessions over 4 days around the following themes:
Inspire and Connect through Inspiration Station Workshop Sessions
Inspiration Stations are an informal way to bring a group of participants together for an in-depth conversation and to share perspectives about specific area(s) of interest or specific ideas.
Joining an Inspiration Station is a chance to learn something new, outside the traditional workshop setting, and to join groups of your peers who share similar challenges or questions that you have. It's a great chance to build connections and create opportunities for collaboration.
Hosting an Inspiration Station is a great opportunity to share best practices, new ideas, or get feedback. To host, you must submit an application for an Inspiration Station. Each Inspiration Station will be chaired by a designated person and offer explorations aligned with the BOOST Conference core values:
Inspire Youth, Inspire Learning, Inspire Change
We look forward to learning with you in sunny Palm Springs April 26-29, 2016 www.boostconference.org
