Conferences

Below are listed a variety of professionally produced seminars by various companies. These seminars will be offered at several locations. Should you see any offerings you would like to attend, I encourage you to communicate your desire directly to your supervisor or department chair. If you attend any, we would appreciate any feedback you would like to share with us, i.e., how you would rank the presentations, professionalism of the company, quality of conference rooms, etc.
