Have you ever had questions about copyrights for your art or published work, or trademarks for your business? How about patents for an invention you came up with? Or how insurance works in relation to officers and other aspects of our organization?
These are only a few ways in which the modern world impacts the game we play.
This event is an opportunity to learn about the interplay of the modern world issues into our venue. Professionals, both SCAdian and SCAdian friendly, will be presenting classes on topics that effect may facets of our organization.
We are looking for teachers for the event. If you are willing to share your professional experience in a manner that can better our scadian experience, please contact Mistress Katherine. Some examples of teachers in fields of interest would be project managers, accountants, employment recruiters, attorneys and medical professionals.
Also, there has been a suggestion that the classes be recorded and then uploaded. We would be greatly appreciative of any volunteers that could assist with this mission.
