There just under three weeks remaining to submit a proposal to present at the Tennessee Counseling Association 56th Annual Conference, at the Embassy Suites in Murfreesboro, November 23-26, 2013. In hopes of inspiring you to pull that proposal together, I have been sending along reasons to submit a presentation proposal. * Reason #10: Conference presenters will receive a $50 discount off their registration fee. * Reason #9: Presentations become data for your resume, portfolio, or marketing materials. * Reason #8: "If you become a teacher, by your pupils you'll be taught." * Reason #7: You can be a card collector and trader. And now for Reason #6: The best way to learn about something is to teach it. Preparing for a presentation will allow you to review the recent literature and research on your topic. Organizing your thoughts requires thinking more deeply about the material. You may even learn a thing or two you did not know in the process. Our theme this year is “Counselors Making a Difference”. This is an excellent opportunity to share your expertise with your peers. We welcome all proposals, clinical or school counselors, professionals or students, researchers or practitioners. Diversity of presentations is a hallmark of the TCA conference, and we hope this will be the biggest and best conference yet. So please take a few minutes and submit the attached form. Deadline: Submissions must be received by July 15, 2013. Early submissions are strongly recommended. Notification of proposal acceptance will be sent by Sept. 15, 2013. I look forward to hearing from you! -Andy Finch 2013 TCA Proposal Review Committee Chair Associate Professor of the Practice of Human & Organizational Development Vanderbilt University [log in to unmask]<https:[log in to unmask]> Call-for-Proposals_2013-1.pdf<https://www.regonline.com/custImages/230000/238553/Call-for-Proposals_2013-1.pdf> Call-for-Proposals_2013-1.doc<https://www.regonline.com/custImages/230000/238553/Call-for-Proposals_2013-1.doc> [https://www.regonline.com/t/o.aspx?e=9&p=1312121&a=Exmlx9ZNO3einUiUqS7EEw==] -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To view the SMC archives or Join/Leave the list: http://listserv.utk.edu/archives/smc.html -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
