About BIQ: Since 2001, hundreds of teachers, parents, children, and young adults have gathered together in and around Boston, Chicago, Seattle & Washington DC, for wonderfully enriching weekends. The Beyond IQ conference is a multi-faceted experience including workshops, keynotes, activities for kids and/or grownups, and networking. We will be returning to some of these areas in 2009-2010 for more exciting and educational events.

Parents Are invited to learn more about how to best meet their children's complex social, emotional, and academic needs and to connect with speakers and other parents in our deliberately small and informal setting.	Children Are invited to come and participate in an all-day schedule of activities designed to excite and amuse them, from chess to extreme art to Fun with Fractals, giving them a chance to meet kids with similar interests and abilities.
Young Adults Have a tailored program of workshops and interactive dialogue sessions with presenters on age-relevant topics.	Professionals Who work with gifted children are invited to come and learn more about this unique segment of the gifted population.

Media Policy: Gifted Conference Planners does not provide media passes nor arrange for interviews with conference presenters or participants. As such, the media will not be allowed inside the conference location. If parents are contacted by the media, and choose to speak to them, they may make arrangements to meet at their hotel or other location in the area.
