Dear colleagues,
The SCOPE 2013 Conference Program features field leaders who are shaping the future of primary prevention in education. The program includes keynote speaker, Gail Stern, Ph.D., as well as featured speakers Brett A. Sokolow, Esq., Jean Kilbourne, Ed.D. and Peter Novak, D.F.A.
We are providing more content and value than ever before by including a choice of two free pre-conferences, as well as a post-conference, with every registration. Our pre-conference and post-conference presenters represent the very best scholar-practitioners and the topics cover the most pressing issues facing K-12, higher education and our communities.
We are excited to offer a range of sponsor exhibits, providing our attendees with opportunities to interact with best practice programs and premier organizations. There will also be a chance for registrants to continue conversations from the conference at optional theme dinners.
SCOPE has partnered with QPR to host their Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Trainer Certification Course as yet another option for our conference participants.
Registration closes September 10th and we look forward to seeing many of you in Orlando! Please let me know if you have any questions and feel free to spread the word to your professional networks.
Best, Michelle
