Preliminary Conference Schedule: ACTE's core strength has always been education, and the Las Vegas Conference will introduce a number of enhancements to the educational program. A change in the seminar lineup will increase the emphasis on strategies and techniques to enhance corporate influence for travel management executives. Serialized educational sessions - along with the "Ask First" program (which allows participants to ask their questions before arriving at the conference) - will significantly add to participant value. The objective of this conference is to continue to "Advance the Industry," an initiative introduced last fall in Munich.
