Myers & Lawyer is an Approved RID CMP Sponsor for Continuing Education Activities. This Professional Studies program is offered for .15 PS CEUs at the “some” Content Knowledge Level.

How often do you search for a sign for the specific word or concept you want to express and find yourself stumped? Often, there isn’t one sign for a specific word, so you need to be able to create a sign string to convey the meaning and intent (and not get too far behind the speaker!). This workshop will focus on the strategy of creating and incorporating expansion techniques to deal with complex ideas and concepts.
