Please take a look at the Word file at the top of this page for the
complete listing of workshops available at the conference. You will
notice that all of the workshops are broken down into 1½ hour session;
however, the actual time of each workshop varies in length. Pay special
attention to how many parts there are to the workshop. Out of respect for
the presenter and other conference attendees, we request that you stay
for the entirety of the workshop. Priority will be given to conference
attendees that attended the initial part(s) of the session.

CLOTHING SWAP

Getting tired of the same old clothes? Please bring items you think
others will value but that you no longer wear, then swap! It is essential
that items are cleaned and presented neatly! Clothes left at the end of
the evening will be donated to a local charity.

Our fashion show on Saturday night will feature our very own conference
attendees! It will be an eye-opening lesson on what to wear and what
not to wear on assignment.

Also featuring, our very own clothing swap. The clothing swap will take
place right after the fashion show.

We are in need of a few on-call interpreters, to accommodate our on-
site conference attendees. You can request to be on-call for the entire
day or just for an hour and a half or so. On-call interpreters are paid
$2.00/hour for being on-call ($30/hour if their services are needed).
Interpreters must be KQAS Level 4/5 or equivalent. Please contact Molly
Pourhussin at interpreters@kai-rid.org if you are interested.
