FCA 57th Annual Convention
FCA 57th Annual Convention
Don't miss out! This week is an important week to consider attending the 57th Annual State Convention of the Florida Counseling Association! This year's event will be held on November 16-18, 2006, at the Florida Hotel and Conference Center, located at the Florida Mall in Orlando. (This was also last year's site.)
This year's event will feature outstanding keynote speakers, more pre-and post-convention workshops than ever, and excellent content sessions, often presented by your peers (counselor practitioners)! First year counselors are especially encouraged to attend their initial FCA conference!
Starting last week, all Florida Counseling Association members should have received/be receiving both FCA newsletters and convention brochures. All public school Guidance Departments should be receiving at least one convention brochure. University counselor education programs should be receiving 'batches' of brochures for distribution to both faculty and graduate students. (If you don't receive a brochure by the end of this week or need additional brochures, please contact the FCA Office at fcaoffice@aol.com.)
The deadline for hotel registration is listed as Friday, October 20th. For your information, the hotel has extended the deadline until Monday, October 23rd. But, it is IMPERATIVE that attendees register by that time to guarantee BOTH room availability and the convention rate.
Early registration deadline is Saturday, November 4th. Rates are lower if one registers by the early registration deadline!
For those of you who are not aware, registrations may be completed on-line (for the first time!) and credit cards may be used. This has been a member request; members might certainly take advantage of this opportunity. Members may go on-line at: www.flacounseling.org.
With everyone's involvement, the 57th FCA Annual Convention promises to be excellent professional opportunity, enriching experience, and outstanding success! We look forward to seeing you in November.
