BEGINNING CAREER WORKSHOP AT 2010 CEC CONVENTION

Are you a tenure track faculty in special education in the first three years of your career?

DR's Beginning Career Workshop, to be held at the CEC Convention on April 23, 2010 in Nashville, TN, offers scholars the opportunity to learn from and discuss with seasoned colleagues strategies for navigating the early years of their higher education career. This all day workshop will be structured around four panel sessions, each led by prominent researchers in the field:

Panel 1: Balancing teaching, research, and service: Issues related to tenure & promotion

Panel 2: Writing for publication: Research-based & practitioner journals

Panel 3: Establishing your research/scholarship agenda

Panel 4: Grant writing (large & small/foundations/federal)

Fifteen to twenty participants will be selected to attend this informative workshop. Applications are due February 12, 2010, and the selection of participants will be announced by the end of February.  This upcoming workshop will be the third such event that DR has hosted; evaulations by previous participants have been very positive.   

For more information on the workshop and on the application procedures, see the workshop flyer.
