Does "Session accepted" mean that we will be invited to present and that our stipend request will be fulfilled? Should we be expecting a confirmation email and instructions? We're really looking forward to this! Thank you!
Indeed it does @Manda2831 Can you please send me the email address or the session facilitator who requires the travel stipend.
Thanks
Matt

@mattdigitalme just checking in. We haven't seen an email so we wanted to make sure we didn't miss it. Do you know when we'll be getting details so we can make arrangements? Thanks!

Description
Our research center was granted an opportunity to partner with school districts, technical schools, and afterschool providers to tackle the 21st Century skill deficit of youth entering college or the workforce. With seed money from the Kansas Department for Children and Families we developed the EPIC (Education, Practice, and Immersion for Credit) Project pilot, serving two rural Kansas communities. By bringing together local businesses and the afterschool community we provide experiential opportunities for youth through digital badging. This session will outline project development, celebrate successes, and share lessons learned.
Agenda
The presenters will walk the participants through the process of working with after-school organizations, and business and community leaders to develop a curriculum, incorporate hands-on opportunities, develop incentives and curate content for digital badges for middle school youth.
Participants
A lightning talk will be much the same with 3 or 25 participants. A fireside chat would be shifted slightly for the audience to be more interactive with fewer participants, offering them the ability to guide the conversation, based on the experiences we've had in developing the EPIC program.
Outcome
We see ourselves as mentors who would be available to consult with others interested in developing similar programs in their communities. Nothing is "one size fits all" but the toolkit we have developed outlines steps that most communities can follow to create something that resembles the EPIC program.
