Chapter General Meetings

September 27, 2023 (Wed) |  10:00-11:30 AM

Topic: CAPMT SCV Overview and "Rapid Roundtable Discussion" with Grant Kondo

Hybrid: In-Person (encouraged!) and Zoom

In-Person Location:  Opus 11 School of Music (click for map/directions)

This session will be split into two parts:  In the first portion, we will have an overview

of CAPMT SCV and all the events we do in a year.  Perfect for brand-new and long-time

members!

 

In the second portion, we will flip the usual "presenter speaks wisdom and attendees

listen" format on its head and Grant will use a polling system that will allow us to

explore various topics related to music teachers.  Grant will serve as moderator to

introduce commonly-discussed topics in music teaching and via the polling system,

we will be able to gain "collective wisdom" and responses from all participants

simultaneously!  You'll have to attend to find out how it works!

 

Both in-person AND virtual attendees will be able to participate.  

 

Refreshments will be provided for in-person attendees!
