CAEDHH-BC Conference Update

CAEDHH, in collaboration with the POPDHH, will be piloting a web-streaming option to attend the Oct 25th, 2019 workshop with Sandra Gillam.  We are inviting a few individuals to participate remotely so that we can see the feasibility of providing professional development in this format in the future.  Due to the nature of this being a pilot program, there are some limitations that should be taken into consideration when volunteering to assist with testing!
  • The cost of registration is the same as attending in-person, and we trust that only the registered person will be in attendance.
  • You will be tech-savvy, and able to set-up audio and visual equipment where you participate.
  • You will be able to participate without captioning or ASL interpreting (unless you provide your own interpreting at your site).

To register for this option, please use this unique registration link: http://bit.ly/CAEDHH-BC2019LivestreamYou will not need to register through the CAEDHH Conference Website Page. Details about how to log in will be emailed to you closer to the conference date.

If you have any questions please contact caedhhbc.conf@gmail.com.
