My name is Kelly Felton and I am the President Elect of the Wisconsin Land Information Association (WLIA).  We are planning our 2010 annual conference, which is Feb 24-26, 2010 in Appleton. 

We are trying to offer sessions that reach out to various educational groups across the state tying into our focus on land records modernization, GIS and related technologies, and incorporating the needs and interests of your members.  

The ECLIpSE project (Early Career Leaders in Inquiry Science Education) is a professional development opportunity focused on science teachers in their first five years of teaching.  The project consists of a two-day workshop in August, two “webinar” sessions in the fall of 2009 and a follow-up meeting at the spring 2010 Wisconsin Society of Science Teachers State Conference.
