Sign up here: Para Institute Workshop Facilitator Interest Form

The Para Institute will be held from August 10th through August 13th, 2021 (Tuesday-Friday). However, Friday is organized differently this year, with a menu of webinars, Q&A sessions by para classification, and learning labs led by paras. We therefore are requesting facilitators for TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, and THURSDAY only.

All workshops will be virtual. There are two options for workshops TUES, WED or THURS:

1) WEBINAR (60 min total): a 45 minute presentation to a large group followed by a 10 minute Q&A. The facilitator prepares a presentation with minimal audience interaction until the Q&A. Webinars are offered at:
--9:30am - 10:30am (60 min) OR
--1:15pm - 2:15pm (60 min)

2) INTERACTIVE WORKSHOP (90 min total): a 75 min interactive session (breakout groups, discussion, activities, etc.) followed by a 10 minute Q&A. Interactive Workshops are offered at:
--Interactive Workshop: 10:45am -12:15pm (90 min) OR
--Interactive Workshop: 2:30-4:00pm (90 min)

Please use the interest form to sign up to lead one or multiple workshops!
