CAFÉ is proud to announce the 2011 Symposium on Culinary Teaching, Assessment, Technology, and Program Development, June 23, 2011, at Providence, Rhode Island.
This one-day Symposium, immediately preceding the CAFÉ Leadership Conference, is dedicated to scholarly presentations and workshops so that participants will have the opportunity to explore one of four topics in greater scope.
There is a Call for Proposals on the CAFÉ website at http://cafemeetingplace.com/cafe-events/symposium-call-for-proposals.html which are due on February 1. The Symposium will cost $75, include lunch, transportation from the conference hotel as well as award 1 CEU (and 7-10 ACF Continuing Education Hours).
Registration will be online by November 1. Attendees who register for the Leadership Conference will deduct the $75 from their conference registration fee of $399.
Awards will be presented for (1) best overall presentation/paper in each of the four topic areas and (2) best overall workshop in each of the four topic areas.
