ITC 2009 - Call for Participation

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

Scope -- Venue -- TTTC Workshops -- TTEP Tutorials -- Test Week Registration -- Advance Program

Scope

ITC, the world’s leading forum for electronics test technology, returns to Texas for 2009. ITC offers many attendance options. Test Week activities run from November 1 to 6, 2009.

For complete details, visit the Test Week Web site and view the Advance Program.

Attending for the entire week provides an unequalled educational opportunity for test experts and those new to the field. If your time is limited, however, there are also numerous shorter-term options available; such as one-day conference registration, offering open access to the day’s technical program and the exhibit hall. Advanced Industrial Practices sessions in which industry leaders address today's most important test challenges, four embedded tutorials and once again, our popular poster session, followed this year by a Texas Beer Blast. Obtain free entrance to the exhibit hall on Wednesday afternoon and all-day on Thursday to visit 49 companies. Full-day tutorials are available on on Sunday and Monday, and workshops meet on Thursday evening and Friday. Check the Advance Program for on-site registration hours and rates. You can also register online through October 30.

The Venue

The ITC conference and all associated Test Week events will be held at the Austin Convention Center, Austin, Texas. Austin is the capital of the state of Texas, and its 1888 capitol building is an interesting landmark. Also of interest are the main campus of The University of Texas and the Lyndon B. Johnson Library and Museum. Close to the convention center is the lively East Sixth Street entertainment district which features many restaurants and a variety of music in the ―Live Music Capital of the World. The downtown area has miles of waterfront trails suitable for walking and jogging and is also home to the largest urban bat population in the US whose spectacular flight can be observed just before sunset. For more information about Austin, visit http://www.austintexas.org. Lodging for Test Week is in several hotels in the vicinity of the convention center.

Reserve a hotel room online or send e-mail to jay@connectionshousing.com or call 1.800.262.9974 or 404.842.0000.
