Hello, Wcenter listservians!
I am the current president of the Secondary School Writing Center Association (SSWCA). Dr Amber Jensen (Brigham Young University) and I have been preparing for the annual conference of SSWCA, which is a partnered conference with National Writing Project and Central Utah Writing Project this year. Here are the details:
Views from the Trail: SSWCA & CUWP 2025 Conference
March 21-22, 2025
BYU & online
I know it’s probably too late to plan a trip out to Utah (unless you are located within the region), but if any of you are interested in participating virtually, we have a robust virtual conference schedule available, including keynote presentations from Dr. Tom Deans (University of Connecticut) and Dr. Anne Whitney (Penn State University), as well as breakout sessions led by secondary school writing center tutors and directors or National Writing Project teacher leaders (16 Zoom sessions and 4 pre-recorded sessions). All Zoom sessions will be recorded for later viewing by those who have registered for the conference.
Virtual registration fees:
$40 for students, $60 for professionals
($10 less if you are a SSWCA member or NWP Teacher Consultant)
Please check out the conference website at https://sswca.org/2025-conference-views-from-the-trail/
Registration is open until March 20.
Let me know if you have any questions – thanks!
