The Process for Hosting a PD Session Please select a
workshop/session you think would benefit the people at your laboratory and
surrounding laboratories. A
list of available topics is listed above. (If there are other topics that
may be useful but are not included on our list, please inform the OSMT
office). After selecting a topic,
contact us and we can advise you as to the facility requirements, e.g.
room size, AV equipment, etc.
To keep costs reasonable we try to use no-cost or low-cost
facilities whenever possible.
If the appropriate facilities are available we then make
preliminary arrangements with the host and the presenter for a mutually
convenient date to hold the session.
Most of our PD sessions are about one day long and are normally
given on a Saturday (or Sunday) but some are shorter or can be modified to
be given in the evening.
Weekends are usually best however as the presenters have full-time
jobs and cannot always get away. You may wish to make
preliminary calls to see how many people might be interested. If it looks as if there will be
enough registrants, the OSMT will then advertise and send registration
forms to laboratories in the surrounding area. Ideally we need about 2 months to
organize a workshop/session.
The numbers required vary depending upon the type of workshop and
the costs associated with it.
If there are not enough registrants by the deadline date
established, the workshop/session can be cancelled, but we don't want this
to happen very often. The fees vary depending upon
length and whether it is a wet or a dry workshop. Generally speaking, registration
fees run between $75 to $100 for OSMT members and $100 to $125 for
non-members for a one-day PD session. If you would like to see one or more of these workshops delivered to a laboratory in your area, please contact the OSMT office.
