The annual Fall Workshop presented by the Professional Development Committee will take place on Tuesday, November 24, 2015 at Carnegie Mellon University.  This year's workshop will be presented in memory of Areta Kalogeras, who was a former D1 president and active member of the Curriculum & Instruction (now PD) Committee. The day's theme is "Back to Basics," and features sessions important to all areas of PMEA membership.  Cost is free for active members, $10 for non-members, and $5 for collegiate non-members.  For a detailed schedule, go to the PROF DEV tab.

Online registration is now open.  Click here to register for the workshop.

Please note that we will not do pre-paid parking this year.  We were informed by the staff at CMU that pre-paying doesn't actually save any money nor does it guarantee a parking space. The garage typically used for the workshop is the East Campus Garage, located off of Forbes Avenue.  Click here for a printable map.  Rates are as follows:

• 30 minutes or less - no charge
