Make a Plan
Make your plan now … before you arrive at the 2016 NGH Convention. Review the sessions offered in this year’s extensive curriculum. Plan ahead to ensure you make the most effective use of every precious minute you spend at the NGH Convention. By preplanning, you’ll maximize your learning experience. Just as importantly, the process will help you crystalize your own goals and objectives, making it easier for you to keep your eye on your true targets as you advance in your profession.
3. Decide which of these best matches your personal learning goals.
4. Once you have your agenda for attending the Convention, fill in the appropriate information on the Registration
Form. (See pages 3 and 4 of your 2016 Convention Catalog)
5. After you’ve made your final selections, list each session on a separate sheet of paper.
6. Write your specific objectives/goals for attendance.
7. Then, make a list of questions you’d like to have the presenter answer or discuss with other attendees.

when adding 1 or more to quantities purchased earlier.

the WORKSHOP ACQUISITION FORM, and turn it in to the NGH Registration table with the unused
ticket prior to start-time of the Workshop.
