New Learning Opportunities at #SNIC2020 2019-10-31 Take a deeper look into the new learning opportunities at #SNIC2020! Special Workshops During the Conference Take advantage of unique experiences during the Special Workshops that will offer you the opportunity to tour the state-of-the-art Renaissance Hotel kitchen and volunteer at a local food bank! (Pre-registration required. These activities will take place concurrent to sessions, so plan accordingly)! Ideas@Work Sessions Popular Ideas@work sessions are back with all-new topics. These fast-paced, 30-minute sessions are focused on singular innovations and presented by the school nutrition operators who created them. Speakers will trace the path of a big idea from concept to implementation, identifying the steps required to put the idea to work in your district’s schools. Sponsored by Tyson Foods. Thinkubator: Think Outside the Lunch Box miss out on SNA’s first-ever THINKubator challenge! Eight teams will compete to solve the following challenge: “How do we increase school lunch participation?” During Sunday afternoon’s general session, you, the SNIC audience, will discuss and vote for your favorites! You can even attend an education session where you will learn the process to develop your very own THINKubator in your organization or district.
