Communication Theory Workshops
The Committee's annual workshop takes place during the Spring and typically consists of five single-track sessions over a three-day period. The number of attendees is usually around 100. The majority of the talks are invited. The Workshop typically alternates between the East and the West Coasts of the USA, with two Workshops having taken place outside the USA in 1991.
Next Communication Theory Workshop
The 2009 Communication Theory Workshop will take place May 10-12, 2010, in Cancun, Mexico. For more information see the workshop website. |
Proposals for the Communication Theory Workshop

- Ambiance
- Isolation and exclusive use of the resort
- Accessibility (including visa restrictions)
- Travel cost
- The dates of the proposed workshop (making sure there are no major conflicts, summer vs winter, etc...)
- The cost of registration/lodging

- The quality of the proposal (incomplete or poor proposal may signal things to come)
- Everything else being the same, new CTW organizers will be preferred
- Whether a workshop was held at a proposed venue recently (everything else being the same a new venue may be preferable)
