Wrap Up
The Academic Senate is pleased to announce that the annual Vocational Education Leadership Institute will be held March 11-13, 2010 at The Silverado Resort in Napa, CA. The benefits of attendance include: learning skills needed for leadership at the local, regional and state levels; a larger knowledge base for effective leadership; relationship development and connections to statewide leaders and other occupational faculty; and an increased awareness of resources available. We want to encourage more active participation of occupational faculty in the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges. So join us! The conference is free to those that register early and attend! Travel expenses are also covered! Registration is open to all occupational education faculty and occupational education counseling faculty on a first come, first serve basis.
Registration Fees
The attendance of the Institute,
including
a double occupancy room, is subsidized. Up until January 4, 2010, there will not be a charge to register for the institute. Single rooms
are available at an additional cost of $225
to the
participant. After January 4, 2010, fees will be $50 to register (and have a double occupancy room), and $275 for a single occupancy room. Failure to attend the institute will result in an invoice of $100 + hotel room expenses, if applicable.
Cancellation Policy Institute expenses, such as room, travel and
meeting meals will be covered by the Academic
Senate and a grant from the Chancellor's Office.
However, please remember that the last day to cancel your registration without penalty is February 8, 2010. Cancellations must be submitted in writing to events@asccc.org on or before the posted date. Registration will not be cancelled due to non-payment.
Refunds will not be granted for cancellations after the cancellation deadline (February 8, 2010).
You and/or your college will be invoiced for any unpaid fees upon the conclusion of the event, including “no show” registrants. No shows, unclaimed “TBA” attendees, and cancellations made after the deadline will be billed to you and/or your college for the total cost of registration ($100) and room if applicable to the event.
As attendees are permitted to register without funds, we have no way of determining cancellation unless specifically told, in writing. It is your responsibility to ensure payment of the registration fee. Submission of your registration signifies agreement with this policy.
