Have
you ever wondered what really went on at an Annual Meeting and Professional
Improvement Conference or this year at the Galaxy IV Conference? Have you ever
wondered exactly what do I get for attending these conferences? If you answered
yes to either question or just want to make sure you’re getting the best bang
for your trip, then this webinar is for you! Information will be shared about
the Galaxy IV Conference, the registration process, and tips and tricks from
seasoned attendees to help you get the most out of the
conference.
The Pennsylvania Association of County Agricultural Agents and the NACAA
Early Career Development Committee would like to extend an invitation and
encourage you to attend the 2013 Galaxy IV Conference in Pittsburgh, PA this
September. We are very excited about this year’s event and confident that the
program offers opportunities for program sharing, motivational speakers, and
meeting agents from across the U.S. Plus, the registration fee for any first
timer with less than 10 years of experience is
FREE!
The first step you need to take is getting registered. For someone new to
AM/PIC or Galaxy, this can be somewhat of a daunting task. There is a very
comprehensive schedule to navigate through and numerous decisions that need to
be made on what to attend. Well, we’re here to help. The NACAA Early Career
Development Committee is offering a free webinar that will hopefully make your
decision to attend the Galaxy IV Conference and the registration process much
easier.
An hour-long webinar will be held on Wednesday, June 26, 2013 at 11:00 am
Eastern Time. We plan to highlight the benefits of attending the Galaxy IV
Conference, what events and activities first timers and others can and should
attend throughout the week, and, finally, we’ll take you through the steps of
the registration process. This will be a live webinar, so if you have any
questions, the presenters will be glad to help you
out.
