We would like to ask for attendees to consider submitting a case study report for this course.
Why should you do such a crazy thing? Well, if you elect to submit a case (and do so on or before the deadline), we will rebate you $50 following your attendance at the Advanced Course. But wait, there’s more! If you elect not only to submit, but also to present the case (and field questions and comments at the course) and submit a Power Point presentation outlining the case on or before the deadline, we will rebate you an additional $50 (total $100) following your attendance at the Advanced Course. Please know that these presentations are meant to be instructive for you and the other attendees. There will be no harsh judgments, tomatoes thrown, etc. These presentations form the core of what the Advanced Course is about and we greatly appreciate the effort expended by attendees who join us as presenters. Finally, as a testament to the value of this component of the course, the majority of last year’s attendees agreed that the case presentations were the highlight of the Advanced Course. So please don’t be bashful. This is not required, but we’d like to have up to 10 attendees submit cases.
The case submission should be:
It’s that simple! If more than 10 cases are submitted, presentations will be selected based upon the date of submission and how the case fits into the teaching mission. So sign up now!
