These seminars are offered to encourage teachers to seriously examine significant events in American history in light of the principles of the American founding, and also to encourage the use of primary source materials in the classroom. The seminars, which include both lecture and discussion, are taught by leading scholars in their field from throughout the nation.

These seminars are offered for CEU credit at no charge. Readings will be provided prior to each seminar. Lunch will be provided. All seminars are held on the campus of Ashland University in Ashland, Ohio. (A map and directions will be provided with the reading packet.) A letter will be given at the seminar certifying attendance for CEU credit from your LPDC.

Graduate Credit Option: One semester credit hour from Ashland University is available for participants who attend three of the four seminars during the year. Each seminar is held from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm on a Saturday. Those wishing to receive graduate credit must also attend a one hour session following the seminar (from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm) on using the topic of the seminar in the classroom. While there is no cost to attend the seminars and receive the CEU credit, the cost of the graduate credit is $163. Registration forms for the graduate credit will be available at the first seminar you attend. Payment must be made at that time.
