In an effort to further develop a strong educational offering at the NACS Show 2010, the Committee, led by Chairman Dave Carpenter, President of J.D. Carpenter Companies, Inc. has identified eleven tracks that correspond with attendee interest areas. Each track is overseen by a retailer with expertise in that area. Track Leaders are responsible for the educational content for each workshop within their track, including, but not limited to: workshop topics, facilitators, speakers, and content. If you have comments or suggestions for workshops within this, or any track, please contact Carolyn Schnare, NACS Director of Education and Programming at cschnare@nacsonline.com.
