A teaching activities exchange at a regional psychology convention is described. The exchange included 12 poster presentations of teaching innovations at the undergraduate level. We describe this activity as a model for continuing education programs appropriate for academic psychologists and suggest that similar programs should be held at other regional psychology conventions. We also include some information about those who attended our session, as well as suggestions about how to organize similar exchanges.
