We will begin with registration and check-in from 8:30 to 9:00 am for students and industry professionals.

12:00 PM to 4:30 PM IN PERSON
At 2:00 pm, small groups of 2 to 3 students will each be paired up with an industry professional in a room for discussion and review/audit of portfolios. In these small classroom settings, professionals will provide critical feedback to help students improve their portfolios. Students, don’t be surprised if you are asked to do a quick design challenge, which is highly possible. Please be ready and willing to learn. The day will end around 4:30 and wrap up around 5:00 pm.
