  • Descriptions of our four optional pre-conference workshops, including the inside story of how Oklahoma City has transformed itself;
  • A glimpse into why Oklahoma City offers the perfect setting for the nation's leading TBED conference;

  • Complete logistical information regarding the hotel and transportation for making your travel arrangements; and,
  • A registration form to help you take advantage of the early discounted registration rate, which ends October 9.

The brochure also provides a handy two-page spread (see pages 24-25) that breaks sessions out by thematic areas.
