SEMINAR INFORMATION SHEET

Welcome to the Regional Clerks Seminar. If you have questions that this information sheet does not answer, the TMCEC staff will be glad to assist you. We hope you enjoy the program. ATTENDANCE Please check your telephone number and e-mail address listed on the roster and notify the TMCEC staff of any corrections or changes. Corrections are to be written on the provided space located at the bottom of the Request for Certification form that is included in your registration packet and that you will hand in at the end of the program. The Texas Municipal Courts Association Board of Directors has ruled that attendance records are mandatory. In order for you to receive a certificate of attendance for this program, you must attend all 8 hours on Day 2 of the seminar. Roll may be called at any time and failure to attend without first informing a TMCEC staff employee prior to missing can cause you to not receive attendance credit for the program. If you are late entering any session, please inform a staff member prior to entering the room. Your badge is your proof of identification. Please wear it at all times during the seminar. The badge also serves as your ticket to enter the room where the breakfast and lunches are served. SMOKING AND ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION The Texas Municipal Courts Association Board of Directors has adopted the following policy: No one shall smoke in any classroom, dining rooms or any area adjacent to the classrooms during the TMCEC seminars. Smoking will be permitted only outside the hotel or other common areas away from the meeting rooms and break areas. The possession or consumption of alcohol by participants during TMCEC provided classes, breaks, or meals are prohibited. MEAL INFORMATION TMCEC provides breakfast and lunch on Day 2 of the seminar to the participants while they are attending the seminar. Guests are not allowed to attend the meal functions with the participant. CLASS TIMES

Day 1 Registration 12:00 – 5:00 p.m.

Optional Pre-Conference 1:00 – 5:00 p.m. Prep Course Level 1 & 2 1:00 – 5:00 p.m.

Day 2 Mandatory Class 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

CHECK OUT The hotel has a set check out time. It will be announced on the first day during the welcoming announcements. Please insure that you do not go beyond this time. Extra-day charges imposed by the hotel will be your responsibility. VENDORS TMCEC and the Texas Municipal Courts Association, as grantee, do not endorse, recommend, or imply approval of any or all vendors represented in person or by materials/displays at or near TMCEC/TMCA sponsored meetings and seminars.

INFORMATION PRESENTED AT THE SEMINAR The information presented at this seminar reflects the viewpoints of the instructors and does not necessarily express the opinion of TMCEC, its Board, or Committees. Federal and state statutes prohibit employment discrimination on the basis of disability, age, race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Sexual harassment is included among the prohibitions. The TMCEC strongly disapproves of any form of discrimination or harassment at its seminars, meetings, or within its work environment. Employees, participants, faculty, and volunteers who have experienced or observed any acts that they believe may be prohibited by federal, state, or common law should report the incident to the TMCEC Executive Director immediately. All such alleged acts will be investigated and consideration given to the appropriate action, if any, to be taken. CAMPAIGN ACTIVITIES There shall be no campaigning for the TMCEC/TMCA Board of Directors during TMCEC classes. For the purposes of this section, “campaigning” means activities and communications in any form by or on behalf of a nominee as an Officer or Director of TMCEC/TMCA.

Certificates will not be mailed out. They can be printed out by going to the online registration page at:

http://register.tmcec.com

Please give us 4-6 weeks to process.
