Onsite Tips:

• If you come with a group, split up to diversify the information you bring back to the office
• Bring plenty of business cards
• Come with an open mind
• To ensure your personal comfort, bring a light jacket or sweater that you can put on or take off if you find the room too cool or too warm
• Speak up and ask questions – it's the best way to get the information you're looking for
• Keep a log of action points that you can implement immediately when you get back to the office
• Complete and turn in your conference evaluation forms – that's the best way to let us know what YOU want
• Take notes – due to confidentiality policies at some companies, full presentations may not all be available on the conference CD

And for events that feature multiple concurrent tracks...

• Read the full agenda beforehand to select which sessions are best for you
• Remember your rights: you can always get up and go to another session if the one you selected does not meet your standards
