University of South Florida
On behalf of the Friday Seminar Committee, I am delighted to invite you to register for one or two of the four great Friday Seminars that will be offered at the 2010 SIOP conference. These sessions provide the opportunity to engage in an in-depth exploration of cutting-edge research topics and methodological issues from a scholarly perspective. They are presented by leading organizational scientists, are primarily academic in nature, and address state-of-the art knowledge and research. Enrollment is limited and these sessions are expected to sell out, so register early to ensure your opportunity to participate!
The following Friday Seminars are sponsored by the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, Inc. and are presented as part of the 25th Annual Conference of the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, Inc. SIOP is approved by the American Psychological Association to sponsor continuing education for psychologists. SIOP maintains responsibility for the program and its content. Three (3) hours of continuing education credits (CE) are awarded for the participants in one (1) Friday Seminar.
