Why is this important?
With changing technology, the real life need for Operations and Maintenance and proposed changes affecting Design and Proprietary Technologies in the Regulatory code coming in 2007, this conference will be a great opportunity to find out what is happening and how it will affect your business.
The individual learning track format was so successful and received such positive feedback, the educational portion of the conference will be held in the same way for 2007. Starting on Friday morning, we will have a general session and introduction. You will then be able to break out into one of three learning tracks: Design, Installation or Operations & Maintenance. We will gather together for the afternoon session for about an hour, and then it's off for the evening for exhibitor viewing, and then our annual Dinner and Scholarship Auction program
There will be pre-conference registration and a members meeting on Thursday evening, with the main program beginning on Friday Morning.
