As a CODAA member, you are invited to attend the IEA/NEA One Conference free of charge.  The conference, which is held on October 20-21, 2017 at the Double Tree Oakbrook, offers many sessions of interest to those of us in higher education.  For more information, click on the Conference Sessions link:

This conference is a great way to learn more about the IEA/NEA, engage in professional development, and meet other CODAA members, as well as members of other adjunct associations.
If you would like to attend, DO NOT register yourself or you will have to pay the registration fee.  Instead, email me at [email protected] from your personal email account.  Include your full name and academic department.  I will then add you to our group registration.  After I register you, you will be sent a confirmation email message and will be able to edit your registration to choose your sessions and meals.  As president of CODAA, I invite you to join your CODAA officers at this conference in October.
