The Top Reasons to go to the Conference and Why it is a Great
Value!
Reasons to go to the conference:
- High population density of usability professionals,
all talking about usability.
- Cutting edge tutorials, workshops, presentations, and posters
by some of the most active and innovative people in the profession.
- Numerous group informal events where you can make new friends
and renew old friendships.
- Great opportunity to ask some of your peers about that issue that has
been bugging you (and if you don't like the answer, another peer is a step
away).
- Great way to make sure your voice is heard on the issues facing our
profession; the UPA board is only a few steps away all week.
- Put live faces with the names and photos you see on the books lining
your library, and in mailing lists.
- Explore what folks are doing, hear about the latest tools before they
make it to the journals.
- Expand your toolkit and refine the tools in it by discussing your
findings with other practitioners.
- Spend a few days with folks that don't question the value of what you
do.
- Celebrate the importance and value of usability to successful
design.
Reasons it is a great value

- See all of the reasons above, no where else can you do all of them at
one time/place.
- The Association has aggressively tried to contain costs and
reduce them wherever possible.
- To meet all of these folks would normally cost you enrolling
in several seminars and flying around the country, we have them all
here in one place for one fee.
- Gets the boss to pay for you to go to Orlando for a few days.
