1997 IPMAAC Conference

Make plans to attend the 1997 IPMAAC Conference in Newport Beach

Program Committee

It is not too early to begin thinking about the 1997 IPMAAC conference which will be held at the beautiful Hyatt Newporter in Newport Beach, California, June 22-26. The Conference Program Committee is working diligently to assembly a top-notch program to match the beauty and grandeur of the Newport Beach area. Plan now to be part of the 1997 conference program. The conference offers an outstanding opportunity for you to share your latest research, innovations, programs, and ideas. All topics within the area of personnel assessment and selection are welcome at the conference, as are related topics within the field of personnel management. Topics in the following areas are particularly encouraged:

Innovations in personnel assessment
Programs and practices demonstrating excellence in assessment
Strategies and techniques used to manage the assessment function
Information technology in personnel assessment

A call for proposals will be mailed in late October with a submission deadline of December 13, 1996. For more information, to discuss program ideas, or to join the Program Committee, please contact the Conference Co-Chairs:

Mike Willihnganz at mwillih@smud.org or (916) 732-6051

David Dye at dadye@opm.org or (202) 606-3742

If you have never before attended an IPMAAC conference, plan now to make this your first. If you are a seasoned conference veteran, plan to continue the tradition. The 1997 conference promises to offer a varied and diverse program with valuable information and topics of interest for everyone. So start packing that notepad, pencil, swimming suit, and suntan lotion and get ready to head to the beach -- Newport Beach in '97.
