Thursday, April 11^th, 2002 marks the day of the 17^th Annual Industrial-Organizational Psychology Doctoral Consortium to be held at the Hilton in Toronto, Canada, across the street from the SIOP 2002 Conference hotel. The consortium is traditionally known for its impressive lineup of speakers. The speakers are chosen for their outstanding contributions to the field and will provide their unique perspectives on opportunities and challenges faced by I-O psychologists today. Please look in the next issue of TIP for the announcement of the speakers for 2002.

Each doctoral program will receive registration materials for the Consortium in early January 2002. Enrollment is limited to one student per program, up to a maximum of 40 participants. We encourage you to make your nomination as soon as registration materials arrive because students are enrolled in the order that completed applications are received.

The consortium is designed for upper-level students nearing the completion of their doctorates. Most participants will be graduate students in I-O psychology or HR/OB who are currently working on their dissertations. Preference will be given to nominees who meet these criteria and have not attended previous consortia.
