Program Secretary. We will bring the proposal up
in the IMS Executive Council.
If your workshop is approved by IMS then provide Elyse
Gustafson, the IMS Executive Director, with the
following information by December of the year prior
to the JSM:
- Workshop Title
- Organizer(s)
- Date
- Time
- Room Size (number of people expected)
- Audio visual requirements
- Time schedule for Refreshment breaks

Elyse Gustafson will work
with the hotel to schedule the room, audio-visual equipment
and refreshments. |

Course
Cost |
| |
|
In the past we have charged
participants $25 to cover our expenses and break even. We
can also order danishes/ pastries and coffee service in the
morning and a small snack in the afternoon (cookies) if you
so desire. The $25 will allow for that. The IMS
has a Development Committee that is working to promote different
areas of the IMS. They may chose to make the course
gratis for students or for everybody, in that case the committee
will cover all the expenses for the course from their funds. If
you are interested in this type of promotion, let Elyse know
and she will be sure to put it before the committee. |

Registration
and Course Materials |
| |
|
The IMS Business Office can
handle all the registrations for the course. We will
also collect the abstracts and put together abstract books
for workshop attendees. You should send all these items
to Elyse's attention, preferably by email in Word format. She'll
need them at least 60 days prior to the meeting. Also,
a schedule of the course can be included in the book. |

Advertising |
| |
We want to do lots
of advertising. Once you have the course advertisement
information together be sure it to send Elyse (via email
in Word preferably). Elyse will then attach the registration
form and typeset it for you. Elyse will get them on
the web (IMS page and JSM page), in the IMS Bulletin and
in an e-bulletin. Please also see Bulletins
Announcements for submission deadlines.
Also, if you would like us to put ads in the appropriate Annals
or Statistical Science we can do that gratis as long as the editors
give the final ok. In order to make it into the journals
she'd like the ad info by early January. If you can think
of any place else we can place it too, don't hesitate to suggest. Elyse
is very helpful. |

Workshop
Day |
| |
|
Last of all, so you know, Elyse
will be present at the workshop to make sure everything is
set up ok and to take any on-site registrations. Once
the course starts Elyse may have to attend other matters. But,
she will make sure
you have all the information and contacts
you need just in case. |
