Theme
"Back to the Tutor"

The SWCA is sponsoring mini-regional conferences in 2010, each with the theme "Back to the Tutor" (see below for more info). Each mini-conference will highlight the work and research of our tutors, promote more local participation and networking, and reduce travel costs in light of our current economic environment. Questions regarding the Georgia Conference can be directed to Beth Burmester or Christine Cozzens at swca.georgia@gmail.com. We will be posting regular updates to our website, so keep coming back!

Registration via mail is now closed, but we will accept on-site registration - see sidebar below!
