For the 18th Annual professional development conference April 18-20, 2012, we are returning to Estes Park, Colorado, the beautiful and welcoming gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park. This conference is the premier professional development conference for fire and life safety professionals in the Rocky Mountain Region and it is among the top conferences of its kind in the nation. Our speakers, who hail from across the nation, will bring us innovative programs, information on new technologies, techniques for reaching our target audiences better and ideas for developing successful programs within our shrinking budgets. The networking opportunities alone make this conference worthwhile. Our conference brochure has a list of all of the classes that are sceduled for 2012.

Speaking of shrinking budgets, the registration fee for this 2 1/2-day conference is only $225. All of us are challenged with doing more with fewer resources even though fires and injuries don’t take a vacation during economic downturns. Cutting our registration fee to this minimum level is our attempt to help you afford this valuable training. Additionally, an agency that pays for two registrations gets a third for only $100.

The Rocky Mountain Park Inn which is attached to the conference center, has lowered it's nightly room rate to $75 per night. This rate is good through the weekend should you decide to extend your stay. To reserve your room, call 1-800-803-7837 or visit rockymountainparkinn.com.
