Tutorials

Tutorials are courses that offer extended interactions with expert instructors. The courses available at CHI 2003 represent the leading edge of current practice and research in Human-Computer Interaction. The tutorial program has been designed to appeal to researchers, practitioners, newcomers and regulars.

Tutorials provide diversity and depth through a wide range of topics that expands from theory to practice and from emerging technologies and markets to techniques for design, usability, and promoting HCI in organizations. The CHI 2003 Tutorial Program includes several non-traditional HCI tutorials for participants interested in experimenting with provocative methods and ideas, in trying to do innovation, and in expanding their knowledge and skills in HCI-complementary areas.

Earn Continuing Education Units (CEUs)

SIGCHI offers CEUs in accordance with guidelines provided by the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET). The CEU is a recognized unit of measure for continuing education and professional training programs. Each CEU requires the successful completion of 10 hours of instruction. Successful completion of a CHI tutorial requires that you attend the entire session and participate fully in the learning activities. You can earn 0.6 CEUs for each full-day tutorial (6 hours of instruction), and 0.3 CEUs for each half-day or evening tutorial (3 hours of instruction). To obtain CEU credit, you must register for CEUs at the same time you register for your tutorials. There is a small administrative charge. After the conference, the ACE CEU Transcript Service will send you a letter confirming registration of your CEUs. In most cases, this letter is adequate proof that you have completed CEUs. In the rare case that it is not, the registry can issue an official transcript for a small fee. Please note that the conference does not issue certificates of completion. For further inquiries about obtaining CEU transcripts, you may contact the ACE registry at:
