Attention NBWA Associate Members: Education Seminar Call for Presentations

NBWA’s 73rd Annual Convention will be held in Chicago, Illinois, on October 3 – 6.  In preparation for the event, NBWA is inviting associate members to submit a proposal for the Convention Education Seminar Program.  NBWA’s Education Seminar Program offers a great opportunity to reach out to members of the beer industry.  

More than 1,500 distributors, brewers and associate members are expected to attend the NBWA Annual Convention.  As they gather for one of the beer industry’s premier events, attendees have the opportunity to network, learn and teach. 

This is an exclusive opportunity and a valuable benefit of associate membership.

Seminars will be held on:

• Sunday, October 3 afternoon
• Monday, October 4 morning
• Tuesday, October 5 morning and afternoon.

Seminars are 90 minutes in length and the format is flexible.  Panel discussions, workshops, case studies, idea swaps and other formats are all acceptable.  The structure of each seminar should adequately fit the content of the program.  

Any associate member in good financial standing with the Association is eligible to submit up to five presentation proposals.  A core group of the NBWA Convention and Membership Services Committee will review all proposals and select the presenters for this year’s Convention.  All organizations that submitted a presentation will be notified of the group’s decisions by May 15, 2010.  The deadline for submissions is April 2, 2010, at 5:30 P.M. Eastern.  Click here to submit your proposal today!
