Yes, as you are registering, you will see an "Add-on" to register your TA (you must show proof the person you are registering is a TA). You may only bring one TA with you to the conference. Your TA will watch with you and will not have access to pre-recorded content without you.

If you would like your TA to have full access to the conference, please register for general admission.

SENIA is now a non-profit organization and our overarching mission is to support individuals, families, and communities.

In addition to awarding a student advocate scholarship stipend each year, SENIA will begin to offer scholarships to support local chapter initiatives,  help offset the cost of professional learning opportunities for teachers and schools, and to kickstart initiatives within our communities that support differently-abled individuals.

SENIA incurs all processing fees. (This is why the donation price is an odd number).

Absolutely!

In fact, SENIA wants our conferences to be accessible to all of the members of our community. Please contact Kate Balsamo for more information before you register.

As promised, SENIA will provide you with a $30 discount from the regular admission price to cover your processing fee from SENIA Manila. You should have received an email with your individual discount code. If you are registering as a member of a group or chapter, fill out the group form and click "yes" when it asks if you were registered for SENIA Manila.

Please note that discounts must be done at time of registration and cannot be given after.

Yes, it is. Once you pay, no discounts can be given. Please arrange groups before registering.

Yes, so many rates. It can be a bit confusing.

Group: Register with 4 or more of your friends.

Chapter Watch Party: To receive the Local Chapter Watch Party rate, your chapter must be hosting an event. If you don't see your chapter listed, you can host one. Contact us for more information.

Manila: If you were registered for SENIA Manila, you have received a discount code. If you also want to take part in a watch party or group, register and click yes when it asks if you were registered. These will be cross-referenced.

 

General Questions

We want your conference experience to be tailored to your needs and considerate of time zones. So, we have set it up as a true conference based on KST (Korean Standard Time) as that is where our hosting school is located. 

Options:

  • Attend the conference “live” based on the schedule provided.
  • Use the schedule as a guide as you and your group attend the conference in your own time zone.
  • Or...Who needs a schedule? Watch each video on your own time.

Please note that there will be LIVE Q & A sessions with our speakers. You won’t want to miss those, so keep an eye on your Whova app for exact dates and times of those. 

Recorded videos will be available for 30 days after the conference. (Note: Jessica Minahan’s session will only be made available for 7 days). 

 

Yes, you can. All videos will be posted by the start of the conference.

You have 30 days from the start of the conference to access all videos. (Please note that Jessica Minhan's video will only be posted for 7 days). All others are open for 30 days. Should your school wish to have an all school PD at a later date, contact Lori Boll.

See the conference home page for a link to the Whova app. It is at the top.

Yes, you can! Once you register, we will send you an email with the web address and password. To access the conference on your computer you will need this, so make sure to get it right away.

Yes. You can earn up to Three (3) CEU’s for this conference. SUNY Buffalo State is offering the credits at an additional cost. Contact Kate Balsamo at kate@seniainternational.org if you are interested.

A watch party is a new way to enjoy a virtual conference. We learn more when we are together. By discussing theory, strategies, and best practice, we improve our insight and efficacy as professionals.

SENIA provides groups of four or more with a Watch Party Kit, complete with discussion points and protocols, as well as fun ideas for networking and socializing.

Hosting or facilitating a SENIA Watch Party is an opportunity to bring that networking and collaboration pieces that we all value, to this virtual conference.  Local Chapters (where the government permits it) can plan a one-day conference with SENIA International providing the content virtually. Breakout groups and networking time should be scheduled in.  This can also be done virtually through zoom breakout groups.  For more information, contact kate@seniainternational.org.  Our Watch Party Committee will support you! 

To receive your Watch Party Kit, sign up as a group of four or more.

For the first time ever, SENIA has sponsors. Our sponsors have made it so we could invite multiple high-quality speakers while still keeping rates affordable. We cannot thank our sponsors enough for their support.

Absolutely. Go here for more details or contact Lori Boll lori@seniainternational.org

Yes. SENIA is happy to announce that we are! SENIA has just been registered as a non-profit organization in the state of Oregon (USA) and is awaiting the federal designation. Now, we can fund-raise for scholarships for students, educators and advocates in our community.

Local chapters are the cornerstone of our organization. Local chapters are set up in multiple cities/countries/continents all over the world.

Please find more information about our local chapters here. Or, contact our local chapter liaison, Priscilla Leighton. priscilla@seniainternational.org
