DEADLINE: October 25, 2022
Creative Problem Solving Institute (CPSI – affectionately pronounced SIP-see) is a program of the Creative Education Foundation, a non-profit organization. CEF’s mission is to spark personal and professional transformation by empowering people with the skill set, tool set, and mindset of deliberate creativity. Our presenters and instructors provide the leadership for, and are the heart and soul of CPSI. CPSI is a special conference during which Instructors and Presenters donate their time to support the mission work of CEF so that others might learn Creative Problem Solving in a nurturing and supportive environment.
CPSI 2022 will be held June 25-29, 2023 Lewiston, New York.

You may submit proposals for Open Breakout Workshops: short, interactive learning sessions with a variety of creativity, innovation, and leadership topics to choose from. These 90-minute experiential workshops are offered to all CPSI attendees and expand the CPSI experience with shorter topics that cap the day’s work with inspiration and exploration.
If you are interested in presenting an Immersion Program, please email Missy Carvin directly at mcarvin@creativeeducationfoundation.org. Immersion Programs are immersive, multi-day programs offering a deeper exploration of a creativity, innovation, or leadership topic. Open Breakout Workshops sessions are individual classes; the Immersion Track program functions more like an entire course. Immersion Track programs are focused on training participants in a particular modality and providing experiential learning and the opportunity for real-time application of concepts.
