I would just drop the SCHEDULED: part

** TODO Project Management Workshop
   <2009-11-19 Thu 9:00-16:30>--<2009-11-20 Fri 9:00-16:30>

so you don't get a duplicate entry.  I'd also drop the TODO since it's
scheduled for a block of time and when the time is gone it's done -
whether you mark it DONE or not.
