MEMBERSHIP MATTERS

Submit Your Proposals for Forum 2008


The College Board has put out a call for proposals to lead a session at Forum 2008. The annual conference of the College Board, Forum brings together professionals from across the education spectrum to engage in vital discussions on the critical issues affecting education today and in the future.

This year, the Forum will be held Nov. 5-8 at the Hilton Americas in Houston, Texas. The theme for Forum 2008, “Education First: Our Future Depends On It,” will explore pressing concerns that challenge educators, including issues of advocacy, equal access to higher education and student preparation.

The conference depends in large part on the strength of the session proposals received from education professionals in
K-12 and higher education. Selected session leaders gain the opportunity to gather valuable feedback from peers, receive national attention for their work and showcase education partnerships that promote advancement and opportunity.

Proposals for sessions or workshops are due April 4.

Learn more and submit online at: www.collegeboard.com/forum.
