Philippine
Homeschool Conference 2015: Ready for the World!
October 17, 2015 / 8:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m. / Samsung Hall and SMX, SM Aura
This October 17, Homeschool
Association of the Philippine Islands, Manila Workshops and The Learning Basket bring
you the largest homeschooling conference this year – “The Philippine Homeschool
Conference 2015: Ready for the World!”
As a precursor to the “Global Home Education Conference”
(GHEC) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in March 2016, two well-respected homeschool
advocates and speakers from the United States will be gracing the event as
keynote speakers: Michael Donnelly, Director for Global Outreach of the
Homeschool Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) and Secretary of GHEC 2016, and Rachael Carman, mother of seven
and best-selling author and publisher of popular homeschool science curriculum Apologia.
Rachael’s husband, Davis, the President of Apologia, will be speaking as well.
Sought-after speaker and homeschooling advocate Edric
Mendoza, host of On The Money and homeschooling dad of five will also be
speaking. Chinkee Tan, motivational speaker and wealth coach, will be speaking
as well.
Homeschoolers and those exploring
this educational option will be inspired, informed and empowered in this
biggest homeschooling event. Definitely
bigger than the past years’ homeschool conferences, “Ready for the World!” will
be held at THREE venues at SM Aura Premiere. Keynote talks will be held at the
Samsung Hall, while smaller workshops and the much awaited homeschool expo will
be at the SMX Convention Center.
--
An All Access Pass (pass to go in and out of all three
venues, including the exposition venue) is at Php 1000 per person for the early
bird rate until October 4. Aside from the inspiring talks, there will be a
huge expo of the various learning providers, educational tools, toys, books,
etc. that will help homeschooling parents and aspiring homeschooling parents in
their daily lives. This expo will be open to the public for a minimal
amount of Php 50 per head, but is already included in the All Access Pass.
