Click this sentence!!<\/a><\/h5>\n<p>This year all participants are welcome to come prepared to propose a shorter session on the spot through our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/program\/\">Open Space Format<\/a>. No need to submit, just come prepared and you will have an opportunity to propose your session to the larger group on the spot.<\/p>\n<p>We are also scheduling a limited number of proposals for <b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/program\/\">Mind U<\/a><\/b> programs. These are more intensive sessions, more than 5 hours of immersive training\/experience in a series of 75-minute sessions that run the entire length of Mindcamp. These concurrent sessions are deep dives into a given area. There will be 5-6 Mind U programs in all. <\/p>\n<p>If you would like to propose a Mind U, read on! <\/p>\n<p>As a potential presenter, you need to know what Mindcamp is, and what it is not. Mindcamp is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a non-profit event. It&#8217;s not a paying gig. You pay to come to Mindcamp whether you present or not.<\/li>\n<li>a time for everyone to learn, including you. It&#8217;s not a place to drop in, present, and leave; nor is it a place to sell yourself or your services.<\/li>\n<li>an opportunity to take risks and try out new directions.<\/li>\n<li>a gathering of colleagues. Most participants are already creativity professionals. If you&#8217;re looking for new clients, you probably won&#8217;t find any here.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p><b>Mindcamp Program Design<\/b><br \/>\nTell me, I\u2019ll forget.<br \/>\nShow me, I\u2019ll remember (sort of).<br \/>\nLet me do it too, and I\u2019ll learn, and maybe even help you learn something new too.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote  class=\"x-blockquote x-pullquote right\" >Session submission deadline is <span style=\"color: #990000;\">April 1<\/span>.

Whatever you send us will be cropped\/shrunk to 240px by 340px, so your face should be very prominent. So no action shots of you skateboarding down Mount Olympus, for example. The picture here, on the other hand, is a great example.<\/p>\n<p>We do a pretty great job of finding and preparing images to represent your session, so no need to do anything at all here. But if you have an image for the session in mind, please share it.<\/p>\n<h5>Presenter Benefits<\/h5>\n<p>We offer a modest discount for each Mind U session. If there is more than one presenter, the discount is shared. You are also welcome, if you can afford it, to donate your discount to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/registration\/community-fund\/\">Community Fund<\/a> which helps us welcome dozens of participants who might otherwise not be able to come.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSc3db7Cg-t-IEqN-uqXeShzu-nbfoNKDdolYImqUk9C7P3oOA\/viewform?usp=sf_link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"15238\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/submit-a-session\/submit-now-new\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/submit-now-NEW.png\" data-orig-size=\"307,91\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"submit-now-NEW\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/submit-now-NEW-300x89.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/submit-now-NEW.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/submit-now-NEW.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"307\" height=\"91\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/submit-now-NEW.png 307w, https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/submit-now-NEW-300x89.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mindcamp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/submit-now-NEW-100x30.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 307px) 100vw, 307px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ready to Submit?
