PREPARE your firm for success in 2009…
CELEBRATE 30 years of bringing experts together…
We look forward to seeing you
at ACC’s 30th Annual Conference! This event will prepare your firm
for success in 2009! You will hear from experts about the latest
industry developments and benefit from their professional perspectives.
There will be time to connect and collaborate with friends and
colleagues. Formal sessions, along with informal discussions, will
address key insights on issues relating to airport clients and agencies,
and lead to successful teaming arrangements. You will have an
opportunity to interface with a diverse group of exhibitors who are
eager to share what they do.
The Conference program includes
first-rate sessions on issues facing your business. The opening session
will be powerful and motivating. The topic, The Power of Teaming, addresses the
teams within individual firms as well as how to team with other firms,
airport clients, government entities and the public. Other sessions
address how to help airport clients build stakeholder teams and how to
interact; how to minimize costs and risks on projects; and how to hire
and keep entry-level airport planners, engineers and architects. Hear
from the airports and airlines themselves about the issues that they are
facing and how it affects consultants and suppliers. Learn how to handle
a merger or acquisition of your firm and thrive. This conference will
provide the information you need to move forward and prosper in your
business in 2009 and beyond.
ACC 2009 Committees will conduct their
first meeting of the year during the Annual Conference. ACC Committee
involvement provides all firm employees an opportunity to learn about
and contribute in their respective technical disciplines or areas of
interest. By contributing comments to the FAA& TSA, ACC members have
the potential to impact industry regulations and policies. This exposure
enables attendees to gain knowledge that will directly benefit their
firm’s bottom line. What could be more fundamental to any
consultant firm? Also, please join us at ACC’s annual membership
meeting, which will be held during the conference.
The location of this year’s event
will be the Don CeSar
Beach Resort, approximately 30 miles south of Tampa
International Airport in Florida. This beachfront resort is located on
the island of St. Pete Beach on the Gulf of Mexico. You will enjoy sandy
strolls on white beaches and sunsets on the horizon. Plan now to bring
your families and come prepared to enjoy yourselves.
