Registration

We have decided that there will not be a selection process for this experience. It is open to all past SJTI participants. In order to assist us in developing the curriculum for the weekend and to get a sense of the profile of the participants, we ask that you respond to the questions below. We have also decided to only offer the renewal experience “every other year”. Our next renewal will be in January of 2010 in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.
