Today’s the very last day to save a few dollars on your registration for the American Evaluation Association conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Get in now for the early bird rates!
But even more importantly, those professional development workshops sell like hotcakes and will be filling fast, so if you don’t grab a seat now you may miss out. One has even sold out already!
