We are now taking registrations for the Connexions/OCWC Regional Meeting. Here’s what it is — a two day conference, the first day focusing on collaboration in the Connexions community and related initiatives such as OER Health, and the second day focusing on collaboration in the Americas in the OCW community. It’s an extraordinary opportunity to learn about evolving best practices in two very successful Open Education initiatives, and to network with a wide variety of people who may have a different perspective to offer.

The conference will be held in Houston, Texas on February 5-6, 2009. There is an optional dinner on Wednesday the 4th, and participants are invited to join a NASA tour with other conference attendees on Saturday the 7th. All participants will be charged a flat registration fee of of $495. This fee includes:

• attendance at all conference sessions, Thursday and Friday
• light Continental breakfast, Thursday and Friday
• lunch on Thursday and Friday
• dinner on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, at 6 p.m.
