ACE and NETC Celebrate 10 Years Together

Next summer marks the 10th time the National Extension Technology Conference will join with the Association for Communication Excellence annual meeting. Because the roles of the attendees are so closely interconnected, the two conferences merge into one joint conference every second year. ACE/NETC Ver. 2.011 in Denver will be one of those combined gatherings. Typical attendance at ACE/NETC events is about 450. We are looking forward to an exciting time next summer.
