A Conference Series For and About Highly and Profoundly Gifted Children
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 and seeking to go to new ones in 2011-2012 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.
