[PHNURSES] [Fwd: Summer Institute Early Incentive Deadline]

[Laura Larsson]

Friends:

The University of Washington Summer Institute has received good reviews 
in the past. If you are interested in additional high quality learning, 
register before June 17 and save $300.

Disclosure: When I worked at UW full time, I sat in on classes and even 
taught a session or two. Great fun and a valuable learning experience.

Looks like the Plenary speakers are worth hearing, too.

Greetings!

The deadline for early registration tuition for the Summer Institute for 
Public Health Practice at the University of Washington is fast 
approaching! If registration and payment are received on or before June 
17, tuition will be $1,000 except for GIS, which will be $1,300 
including Maptitude software. After June 17 tuition increases $300 for 
all tracks. So it pays to register early! The final deadline for 
registration is July 22. That is also the cut-off date for reservations 
at the University Inn (1.800.733.3855) and the Watertown Hotel 
(1.866.944.4242).

(To be eligible for the early tuition incentive, the registration form, 
payment, and a memo that travel authorization has been requested, if 
required by your agency, must be postmarked or faxed on or before June 17.)
