2020-21 Instructional Conversation Institutes

2020-21 Instructional Conversation Institutes

IMPORTANT: Registration will close at 5pm on January 13, 2021

**Due to the unfolding COVID-19 situation as well as the resulting social distancing, we recognize that we will not be able to share in face-to-face Institutes right now. We are, however, excited about our plans to provide this training virtually!

To answer some of the basic questions you may have:
Times will remain the same for the virtual Institutes (i.e. 4 days, 9:00am-5:00pm)
We will employ a virtual format rather than a face-to-face format
We will work with each district individually to develop a plan for ensuring your participants receive their course materials and information about how to transition to the online format prior to each Institute

Overview of Institute: Join the Center for Latino Achievement and Success in Education (CLASE) for 30 hours of professional development on the Instructional Conversation Pedagogy and its application. Learn how integrating the listening and speaking standards into facilitated, conversation-based lessons can better prepare all of your students, particularly culturally and linguistically diverse students, for the Georgia Milestones.

The cost is $800 per person including all materials, instruction, etc.

Refund Policy: No refunds for cancellation. Substitutions are permitted up to 24 hours in advanced. Even if payment is collected at a later date (i.e. via purchase order or check), completion of registration serves as confirmation of your attendance. Payment will still be collected if you choose to cancel before it is processed.

If your school or district is paying for your registration or you would like to pay via invoice using a PO or check, make sure that you have the code needed to waive the registration fee ready. If your district contact doesn't have this code or you would like for us to create a code for you, you can contact Shannon Rodriguez at sdpenton@uga.edu for help.
