Southeastern Theatre Conference's Information on how to attend
the Annual SETC Convention or K-12 Institute and receive:

• Continuing Education Credits (CEUs)
• In-Service Credit
• Licensure Renewal Points for Teachers
• Contact hours to be used for CEUs

SETC is dedicated to providing opportunities for teachers of Drama at the K-12 level. Our goal is to help enrich their knowledge of theatre for use in the classroom and provide tangible resources regarding maintenance and renewal of licensure.

It is possible that your state may issue CEUs, in-service credits or renewal points to teachers who attend workshops and/or master classes at the annual SETC Convention or K-12 Institute, an all-day event the Wednesday prior to each convention.

Teachers attending the K-12 institute are invited to stay and attend the Wednesday night SETC functions for free. It is possible to attend the K-12 institute and Wednesday night workshops to accumulate 10 contact hours. Alabama teachers make sure you check in with the SETC representative to receive documentation for your 10 contact hours.

1) It is imperative that you contact your local education agency (school system) or fine arts coordinator in your county prior to attending the convention to make sure that participation in either the SETC Convention or the K-12 Institute will translate to CEUs, in-service credits or licensure renewal points. In some states you may be required to fill out specific forms before the convention. You may need to give them information about SETC and the kinds of workshops and presenters that will be offered. The Website at www.setc.org and the current or past programs should be of help. If you need publications, please contact the SETC office.

2) When you check in at registration, pick up a Convention Workshop Attendance Sheet. This will allow you to keep track of the workshops, presenters, content and the hours that you spend during the convention.

3) When you are ready to leave, return to the Registration Area. There you will receive a Certificate of Attendance signed by SETC's Executive Director and the Educational Services Manager. This certificate will indicate the total number of workshop hours you attended during the convention. Registration closes at 12 noon on Saturday. Make arrangements to pick up your certificate prior to this time. At the end of the day for the K-12 institute you will receive a certificate of attendance detailing contact hours and content.

4) Return the Certificate of Attendance to your local education agency, fine arts coordinator or designated arts in education person in your locale.
