TitleASL specialist Conference, Oct 22-23
BodyFrom: http://www.aslta.org/Wkps/Oct22.htm
Registration form available at this site.

The Conference, The Road to Success: ASL is the Key!, will be a two-day
event held October 21st & 22nd , 2004 at Saint Paul College in St. Paul,
Minnesota.

The ASL specialist position is currently a fast growing job. There are not many
formal educational training programs for ASL specialists and many ASL
specialists are learning these roles on the job.

ASL specialists are surviving with the lack of resources and support for ASL,
focusing on first language students. There are plenty of resources available
for the interpreters and people learning ASL as a foreign language.

This conference will be an excellent place to meet other ASL specialists. This
is a golden opportunity for ASL specialists to gather more resources, ideas
and information for their specific needs, focusing on Deaf students learning
ASL as their first language.

The conference will include keynote speakers, workshops, light breakfasts,
luncheons, afternoon breaks and forums. A night of entertainment will also be
included.

Metro Deaf School is proud to host a conference for ASL specialists in
America for the first time ever. Our sponsors are Minnesota ASLTA, National
ASLTA, and CAEBER (Center for ASL/English Bilingual Education and
Research).
