From Theory To Practice
Conference Date: | Saturday, May 12 |
Conference Location: | Acadia University Patterson Hall 24 University Ave Wolfville, NS |
The conference theme: From Theory to Practice
Is there a movement, or progression from one to the other? Couldn’t practice inform theory? Or, does this theme cast a wide net and represent a range of ideas and everything in between?
However we look at it, this conference tapped into the collective training and experience of our membership to share what works, how it works, and why it works.
