Congratulations on getting a ticket for MAC XIII! One of the next big steps is to sign up for our workshops. ALL attendees are required to sign up for workshops in order to be eligible to participate in the conference. Workshop registration will be open from Sunday, January 19th to Saturday, January 25th.

MAC XIII is not only a place for networking but also a place to hone or discover one's skills. This year's conference will feature 18 unique workshops that cover a wide range of topics from leadership to the arts. Each workshop will give attendees an opportunity to learn from those experienced in their area of interest and apply their own knowledge as well. In accordance with this year's theme, Enter Your Multiverse, each workshop is designed to help attendees explore the many possibilities within their personal and professional lives. Through activities ranging from interactive lectures to active dance classes, the workshops aim to encourage self-reflection and foster the confidence needed to navigate the countless paths available.

Workshops will take place in 2 sessions starting at 8:30AM on Saturday, March 1st. Each session will last approximately 1 hour with the sessions taking place from 8:30AM-9:30AM and 10:30AM-11:30AM respectively. Attendees will be able to register for 1 workshop in each session, and each workshop has a LIMITED capacity.
