**Please note the venue change for our Spring Symposium.  Due to a scheduling complication, the March 2nd Conference is now at the EcoTrust Building, NOT Concordia University.  We have also reduced the registration fee from the original pricing by $10 as parking is not free at the new venue.  Those new amounts are reflected in current registration.
