Time's running out! Last chance to join your STC colleagues in Columbus, Ohio on June 21-24 for Summit 2015.
More Networking Opportunities
The Summit now offers three networking receptions included in your registration. Don't miss out on the fun at the Opening Reception, Communities Reception, and new Honors Reception!
We've replaced the traditional banquet in favor of a livelier reception format, scheduled to start after the education sessions end on Tuesday. The Honors Reception will feature hors d'oeuvres and appetizer stations and will celebrate this year's honorees, including Fellows and Associate Fellows. Join your STC colleagues in networking with and congratulating these individuals.
Also new this year is the opportunity for Speed Networking, taking place in the Expo Hall. Looking to branch out and make new connections? This event will be the ultimate networking opportunity at the Summit and put you in contact with industry movers and shakers.
New Education Tracks
The education tracks have been reworked based on direct feedback from Summit attendees and the latest industry trends. These tracks are designed to allow you to efficiently plan your educational opportunities at the Summit. With over 80 sessions and seven specialized tracks, you'll walk away with applicable knowledge for your particular job. Tracks include:
- Art, Design, and Visual Communication
