Thanks Sarah and Francesca for organizing such a great event. Look forward to seeing you all at the next event in February.
Hi Danielle,
In order to accommodate all the provisionals for PRRC shifts, we ran into a scheduling conflict with Training Day which traditionally takes place Saturday. (And the president-elect was available to speak on that date.) Training Day is from 8:30AM (hospitality), 9AM (meeting) to 12:30. But we should be wrapped up by noon. Since the PRRC shift is from 11AM-3PM, there is overlap.
But your provisionals have the following options:
1. Keep their PRRC date and make up the Training Day with another 3 flex point activity (DIAD, VTD, General meeting etc.) and schedule a call with you. (I emailed around the Placement brochure to our google groups for advisors to pass along to their SGs for reference.) AND attend the Placement Fair on March 26th, 6PM. Provisionals will be able to go around the various booths and ask questions--pretty much exact same information as Training Day.
2. Or if they would prefer to attend Training Day instead of PRRC, they can sign up for another available date via digital cheetah. (But they will need to notify us of the cancellation.) I took a look and there are shifts still available on: Feb. 1st, May 3rd and 10th. The Feb. 15 was cancelled by the center.
My strong recommendation would be to keep the PRRC March 8th date and attend the Placement Fair on March 26th. (The Placement fair and Training Day is essentially the same.) I'm looking into potentially getting your provisionals who signed up for March 8th, 3 points if they attend Placement as a make up. Normally placement fair is 2 points from the placement committee. Please don't mention the 3 points as a possibility to your provisionals until I get confirmation, since it may not happen.
Please let me know your thoughts and if your provisionals have any other questions!
Thanks :)
