    4 Great General Sessions for Fall Conference

    The IECA Fall Conference is looking GREAT! I’m so thankful for our members throughout North and South Carolina who have been working to pull this gathering together.  In previous blogs I wrote about the planned tours and pre-conference events.  Today—General Sessions:

    There are four General Sessions, one each day, with the first two oriented toward school and college admissions, the Friday session a dynamic examination of federal legislation that could transform the therapeutic industry, and the final day dominated by our first-ever MASTER CLASS.

    Wednesday‘s guest speaker we have sought to feature for many years: Dr. Daniel Pink who will explore why creative, non-linear right-brain thinkers are poised to take charge in the future.

    On Thursday one of the most fascinating speakers in the country, Dr. Nido Qubein, entrepreneur, business leader, humanitarian, author, and university president, will explore the intersection of success and significance in one’s life.

    On Friday we change the pace with a point/counter-point examination of proposed federal legislation that could forever alter the work of therapeutic schools and programs. For the first time, advocates for all points of view will be heard as those organizing on all sides of the current debate takes a stage together, share their views and answer audience questions.
    Saturday we introduce, by popular demand, a more advanced and deeper exploration of the adolescent brain. Led by Dr. Jeff Georgi, his short presentation last spring brought demands for his return. This three-hour session will explore this fascinating topic beyond anything we’ve done as part of a conference before.

    Watch the IECA Web site where conference information will be posted in early August.
