PPC UPDATE
Rachel Frick and Sarah George, Co-Chairs

The NASIG 2007 Program Planning Committee has spent the past few weeks reviewing proposals and scouting out hot topics and speakers. As we write this, the committee is making final decisions about which proposals to accept.  We hope to confirm all of our speakers by late November.   By December 15^th, we plan to announce the finalized program.  So stay tuned!

This year we received over 50 proposals and ideas from two calls.  It was hard to make decisions with such great applications, but the committee persevered!  We are confident that you are going to enjoy the 2007 slate of presenters and topics.

PPC is pleased to announce the continuation of “no conflict” scheduling for the conference. For 2007, strategy and tactics sessions won’t overlap in order to provide the most for your conference dollar. Look for a healthy selection of pre-conference opportunities this year, in addition to past conference favorites such as informal discussion groups, poster sessions, and user groups.

Special thanks to each PPC member, the NASIG Board, and especially our Board liaison, Char Simser.
