Computer Technology Workshops (CTW)

CTW Proposal Submission Overview

Vendors who wish to present educational materials in a classroom setting to support their computing packages are encouraged to participate in the CTW program. Through the CTW program you are offered an opportunity to present the theoretical basis and/or an appropriate review of detailed applications of your products, especially those aspects that are considered new or novel. By utilizing the CTW program, you are assured of an audience that is genuinely interested in the presentation topic - an audience that is not distracted by the traffic of the Exhibit Hall.
