SCHEDULE
Registration will be from 7:30 am to 8:30 am. For day one, all
trainings will begin at 8:30 am sharp. Each training is
tentatively scheduled for 8:30 am – 4:30 pm. However, each
presenter has the option of starting and ending earlier or later.
Many of the presenters would like to end early on the last day,
thus to get in the appropriate hours, they may opt to start
earlier or end later on other days of the training.
