The 2006 QSM Users Conference
The 2006 QSM Users Conference will take place September 28th at the Tower Club in McLean, VA. The conference will feature presentations from QSM clients and consultants and demonstrations of the latest SLIM tool suite. The Users Conference is a great opportunity for SLIM users to network and exchange information while learning about the latest developments at QSM.
Space will be limited, so please reserve your seat by September 15th to avoid disappointment. We look forward to a day of exciting dialogue about what our clients have accomplished with SLIM tools and to hearing your ideas on how we can continue to improve the SLIM tool suite.
The Tower Club is located in McLean, VA at Tysons Corner (Washington, DC metro area). Detailed directions and accomodation information can be found in the sidebar at right. We will provide lunch and refreshments and there is no fee for QSM customers to attend.
Registration starts at 8:00 AM on September 28th. We will conclude the conference at 4:30 PM with a reception following the meeting. Space will be limited so registration will be on a first come basis. TO REGISTER CLICK HERE.
