The National Private Truck Council (NPTC) will hold its Annual Education Management Conference and Exhibition May 2-4 in Atlanta at the Omni Hotel at CNN Center and the Georgia World Congress Center.
The theme of NPTC 2004 is "Delivering the Future."
Private fleets are experiencing a renaissance in the corporate transportation marketplace. The conference will show how private fleets are expected to grow in the years ahead -- and how successful private fleets are proactive in continuously selling their value to those they serve.
New hours of service regulations and their impact on private fleets are the conference lead topic. There will be five workshops on HOS, plus a general session with representatives from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
The "Bring Your Boss" program this year features an Executive Education Track to discuss key issues facing upper management. It is an opportunity for bosses to learn more about how increasingly important well-run private fleets are to corporate America -- and to share in the information.
These are some of the highlights of the show. Another benefit of attending is the informal meetings among private fleet management and supplier/vendor professionals.
Exhibit Hall booth space is basically sold out. Check NPTC website at www.nptc.org to see who has signed up as an exhibitor.
