Registration Now Open For Hydraulic Institute 2009 Spring Meeting
The Hydraulic Institute (HI) announced recently that registration for its 2009 Spring Meeting is now open. The 2009 Spring Meeting will be held at the Marriott Oak Brook Hills Resort in Oak Brook, Illinois from June 24 to June 27.
This forum offers networking and educational opportunities for engineers, CEOs and Human Resource executives from pump and supplier companies. During the meeting, over twenty HI technical committees will gather to address industry standards, guidelines, electronic data exchange protocols, and more. Details on the work of each committee, including the status of the various standards and guidelines under development, are available on the HI website at www.Pumps.org/2009Spring. HI welcomes engineering consulting firms and pump users to participate in its technical committees as "Standards Partners," whereby they establish a formal relationship with the Institute and its technical work efforts.
This year's meeting also offers a unique opportunity for Human Resource executives and CEOs to collaborate at a new Human Resources Network and the CEO/HR Roundtable. The HR Network will explore common HR issues. Speakers will address issues tailored to meet the needs of the pump industry. Registrants attending the CEO/HR Roundtable will have the opportunity to share insights into key human capital issues and trends.
Registration is open to all HI members, associate members, committee members, "future engineering leaders" and prospective members. Prospective members (pump and supplier companies) as well as engineering consulting firms who are interested in becoming Standards Partners are requested to contact Mary Silver, Director of Member Services, at 973-267-9700 Ext. 117 or via msilver@Pumps.org before registering to discuss eligibility.
Access to the online meeting brochure and registration forms are available on the Institute's website at www.Pumps.org/2009Spring. Early registration and other discounts are available with substantial savings. Guests are encouraged to reserve rooms at the Marriott Oak Brook Hills Resort early as space is limited.
