Philips Sonicare is funding two scholarships to the "It's Academic ... Let's Present It" seminars in San Francisco this summer.

As an educational partner with the academic community, Philips Sonicare is very pleased to announce it will award two scholarships to "It's Academic…Let's Present It," a workshop for current and future educators and professional speakers in dentistry.

The workshop will be hosted July 18–20 at the Sofitel San Francisco Bay Hotel in Redwood City, CA. It will include educational sessions on adult learning principles, building evidence-based presentations, advances in presentation technologies, such as interactive audience response systems, and PowerPoint skills. This limited attendance workshop represents a unique hands-on experience for enhancing and maximizing educational outcomes and for networking opportunities.

Philips Sonicare will select one dental hygiene faculty member and one student dental hygienist (senior status in Fall 2008 or degree completion student). Scholarship winners will receive round-trip airfare to San Francisco, hotel accommodations, and full tuition. Winners will be responsible for ground transportation and meals.

Please complete the application through this survey. The application deadline is May 16. Two winners will be notified by Philips Sonicare by May 30.

Philips Sonicare looks forward to faculty and students participating in this exciting opportunity and their continued partnership with the academic community.
