Thanks to P&P SIG member Mike Brewer for bringing this event to our attention.The Procedure Professionals Association (PPA), along with SCIENTECH, will host the 20th Annual Procedure Symposium in Clearwater Beach, Florida, June 16 through 19, 2008. In this format, we continue to provide a forum for professionals working in the areas of procedure administration, control, and production. The technical program consists of formal presentations as well as facilitated breakout sessions. As is customary, we will have a strong focus on providing greater and more diverse networking and benchmarking opportunities.
All levels of management, procedure writers, procedure administrators, training specialists, and procedure users will benefit by attending the specialized breakout sessions that deal with the issues related to their specific areas. Also, for the first time ever, a Procedure Writer Training Workshop will be held on Monday before the regular symposium schedule begins.
The symposium will be held at the Sheraton Sand Key Resort (www.sheratonsandkey.com). Rooms are available at a reduced rate.
For more information and the registration package, please visit the PPA website at www.ppaweb.org.
