The following workshops are sponsored by the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, Inc. and presented as part of the 17th Annual Conference of the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, Inc. APA Division 14 is approved by the American Psychological Association to offer continuing education for psychologists. APA Division 14 maintains responsibility for the program. Seven (7) hours of continuing education credit are awarded for participation in two (2) half-day workshops or one full-day workshop.

Note to all California participants seeking CE credit: As of January 2002, APA Sponsor credit is accepted for MCEP credit in California. This effectively means that SIOP will not be reporting your participation to MCEP as in the past. You will be responsible for individually reporting your own CE credit to them and paying any applicable fees. Of course, SIOP will still maintain its own record of your participation and issue letters providing proof of attendance.

Date and Schedule

The workshops take place on Thursday, April 11, 2002the day before the regular program of the SIOP Conference begins. More specifically:

How to Register

To register, please use our new online registration system, or if this is not possible, complete the workshops section of the General Conference Registration Form in the center of this booklet. Registration for the workshops is on a first-come, first-served basis. All workshops are half-day sessions and will be presented twiceonce in the morning and once in the afternoonwith the exception of Business Fundamentals for I-O Psychologists. This is the only full-day workshop offered this year. You must register for two half-day sessions or one full-day session (no half-day registration allowed).

Please see the SIOP Web site (www.siop.org) for online workshop registration instructions. To register using the paper form, you must fill out the workshop section. You will be asked to list your top six choices. Because workshops fill up very quickly, we ask that you list all six choices. Please list your choices in order of preference (1st is the highest preference, 6th is the lowest preference). If you list fewer than six workshops and your choices are filled, we will assume that you are not interested in any other workshops and your workshop registration fee will be fully refunded. If you indicate on the General Conference Registration Form that you will accept any open section, we will assign you to a workshop.

Those who register for workshops online will receive a confirmation e-mail right away. Those who register using the paper form will receive a confirmatory letter in early March.
