Event: OWCA Info Session: “So You Want to Present at a Conference?”

Hello, everyone.

I’m writing to announce an upcoming Online Writing Centers Association informational session: “So You Want to Present at a Conference?” at 2pm EST on Friday, September 22nd, 2023.

Do you have ideas that can start a conversation? Have you done research that you want to share? Is there a workshop you feel is invaluable for others to participate in?

Co-hosted by OWCA’s Conference Committee and Virtual Events Committee, this event is for all those in the writing center world who are interested in presenting at a conference but who are not sure how to craft that perfect proposal. Using the CFP for the OWCA’s 2024 Virtual Conference, this event will review what a CFP asks and what a strong proposal contains. There will be time for a Q&A as well as individual feedback on your proposal draft. Anyone is welcome to attend this event.
