Workshop Format

AASP has been successful in experimenting with different scheduling options during the previous few conferences and will continue to offer flexible schedule offerings. Continuing Education Workshops can take the form of a 6-hour or 3-hour program in one of the four thematic areas: General, Psychology and/or Counseling, Mental Skills Training, and Sport Science.  Whenever possible, workshops should be experiential and interactive, extending beyond a strictly lecture format.  AASP strongly encourages submissions with more than one presenter.

The six-hour workshops may be spread over the evening of one day and the morning of the next day (Tuesday, Oct. 1 and Wednesday, Oct. 2) or be conducted during one full day (Wednesday, Oct. 2) with a lunch break in the middle. Three-hour workshops may be scheduled during one evening session (Tuesday, Oct. 1 or Thursday, Oct. 3) or during the morning or afternoon on Wednesday (Oct. 2), Friday (Oct. 4) or Saturday (Oct. 5).  AASP reserves the right to make all final scheduling decisions based on the full package of submissions, but please include your scheduling preferences to aid us in our decisions.

AASP encourages workshop submissions that may appeal to practitioners, educators or students.
