EACUBO WORKSHOP 2005

AN ALMANAC OF ELECTRIFYING IDEAS

ARE YOU EXPERIENCING inventor’s block and using the same old solutions for the same old problems? Need a spark to find a new idea – a new solution? EACUBO invites you to join us for the 2005 Professional Development Workshop in Philadelphia on March 17–18, 2005.

The preliminary list of sessions promises to have something for all levels – from chief financial officers to analysts and other administrators and for institutions of all sizes. A sampling of the schedule includes sessions on debt policies, managing rising health care costs, integrated planning and financial modeling, investment management and endowment spending policies, change management, and facilities benchmarking. The Workshop also provides a wonderful opportunity to share ideas with colleagues from other institutions.

The location of the 2005 Workshop is the Sheraton Society Hill. The hotel is located amidst lush landscaping and cobblestone streets in the most historic square mile in America and just four blocks away from Philadelphia's renowned Independence Hall. Come visit as the city pumps up the electricity leading to the tri-centennial of Benjamin Franklin’s birth.

Mark your calendars today for March 17 - 18 to be energized at the 2005 Workshop. Continue to watch the EACUBO website (www.eacubo.org) for detailed program and registration information.
