CONFERENCE DETAILS
The annual NWCCN conference is partially modeled after an unconference, with half of our conference workshops predetermined prior to the weekend, and the other half chosen on the first evening. If you are interested in presenting a workshop at this year’s conference, please submit a proposal below!
What is an Unconference?
A typical conference has all of the sessions predetermined, which leaves little room for attendees to ensure they get their specific needs met. Using the unconference method, we come together on the first evening of the weekend to decide workshop session topics based on our needs as a group at that time. We have a vast range of knowledge and experience among our attendees and we collaborate to determine who would be best to lead the requested sessions. If there are more requests than session spaces, topics may be designated as table top discussions during meals.
