Community Events
Listed below are events and locations where GET staff are available to talk with families about how GET works, how its value is guaranteed, and how families of young children can afford college in future years. It’s an opportunity for in-person discussion of general questions, as well as answers to individual concerns.
This enrollment year, GET will begin offering free community information workshops throughout the state. Each informal event will include an overview presentation followed by a question and answer period. GET staff will also be available to help families with individual questions. Please join us! To RSVP for the workshop, email GETOutreach@hecb.wa.gov or call 1.800.955.2318.
- Trade shows and Information Tables
We frequently host a booth at a community event or a trade show attended by parents or grandparents of young children, or school district personnel. Stop by and see us. Staff is on hand with answers to your questions and brochures to take home about GET.
- Presentations and Open Houses
Schools, companies, and other public and private organizations can help their employees learn about saving for college by offering payroll deduction. We frequently visit worksites and schools to bring the information where and when it’s convenient for you. A presentation includes an overview of the program and a question and answer period. This can be offered during a lunch period called “Lunch and Learn”. Or organize an Open House – an informal, one-on-one interaction with a GET representative.
