Filling out the form:

If you have not registered for an ETTC class before, please fill in all the information. If you have registered before, you only need to give us your name, school and district, along with the information on the workshop you wish to attend.

The Preliminary Approval space is for the initials of an administrator, provisionally approving your attendance. This approval is necessary only for participants who want us to hold a spot until payment can be sent to us.

What if my district wants a workshop not in the catalog?

The resources of the ETTC are available to meet the needs of districts. Possible services include: workshops dedicated to a single district, either at the ETTC or a computer lab in that district; use of the ETTC facilities for workshops conducted by outside contractors; and the development of workshops customized to district needs.
