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.      SUNDAY 7:30am - 2:45pm Attendee Golf Event - Stallion Mountain Golf Course 10:00am - 7:45pm Conference Registration CyberCafé (compliments of Continental Airlines) 2:00pm - 6:00pm Welcome Reception 3:00pm - 4:00pm Stages of Travel Management Excellence 4:00pm - 5:00pm New Member/1st Timer Orientation Reception 6:15pm - 7:45pm Opening General Session 8:00pm - 10:30pm Opening Reception      MONDAY 7:00am - 6:30pm Conference Registration CyberCafé (compliments of Continental Airlines) 7:30am - 8:00am Continental Breakfast 8:15am - 9:30am General Session and Keynote Presentation 9:30am - 9:45am Coffee Break 9:45am - 11:00am Educational Sessions 11:00am - 12:30pm Celebration Exhibition Technology Experience (compliments of GetThere) 12:30pm - 2:30pm Luncheon, General Session and Keynote Presentation 2:30pm - 4:00pm Celebration Exhibition Technology Experience (compliments of GetThere) 4:00pm - 4:15pm Coffee Break 4:15pm - 5:30pm Educational Sessions      TUESDAY 7:00am - 6:30pm Conference Registration CyberCafé (compliments of Continental Airlines) 7:30am - 8:00am Continental Breakfast 8:15am - 9:30am General Session and Keynote Presentation 9:30am - 9:45am Coffee Break 9:45am - 11:00am Educational Sessions 11:00am - 12:30pm Celebration Exhibition Technology Experience (compliments of GetThere) 12:30pm - 2:30pm Luncheon, General Session and Keynote Presentation 2:30pm - 4:00pm Celebration Exhibition Technology Experience (compliments of GetThere) 4:00pm - 4:15pm Coffee Break 4:15pm - 5:30pm Educational sessions 7:30pm - 8:30pm Closing Reception 8:30pm - 11:00pm Closing Dinner
