Fresno Conference Program?

[Lee Hixson]

There's no program on their website yet. It's only a couple of weeks away. Am I looking at the wrong site?

When the program comes out, if you don't like the looks of it, don't go... Think of it as an opportunity to support the CSUF program.

[Lee Hixson]

I usually like to see what I'm paying for.

[Dhanrion]

Well, it's CA, so I am sure you could just have faith like Nancy Pelosi and just pay for it so you can find out what's in (or not in) it. ;)

Wow David, would you or Harry Reid pay for my registration?

[Rob_LS]

Still no progress on the website. Past conferences have featured well worthwhile presentations. The networking opportunities are a bonus. There will also be an ASPRS Technical Session at 6:00PM on Thursday evening before the CSUF Conference at the California State University, Fresno Engineering East, Room 101 (EE-101). Details to follow. The DRAFT announcement looks like 3 great speakers and topics!

its not even stated what the cost is going to be yet.

I can't get my company to pay for a conference that i or they know nothing about.

We have unfortunately had issues with the website this year, and we apologize the lack of information it has provided so far. The website is still undergoing work, and will hopefully feature more information in the near future.

I am attaching the registration form, the mailer we sent out, and creating a link to the ASPRS website showing the technical session being held the night before.

I know it is short notice but the conference program is available on the website.

Here is the link.

And the late registration fee has been waved because of the problems we had with the website.
