Special Professor & Students Package

The International Society for Performance Improvement understands the financial limitations of many students and professors and the importance of learning outside of the classroom. Therefore, we strongly support those in academia, and their desire to accumulate knowledge and build a network of professional contacts.

ISPI invites professors and students to attend the 43rd Annual International Performance Improvement Conference with a special Professor & Students registration package. This special package allows professors to attend this conference along with three students for the group rate of US$1,000. This is your opportunity to attend ISPI’s 2005 Vancouver Conference for as little as US$250 each, based on this special package rate.

If you’re a professor, come to Vancouver with your top three students. If you’re a student, grab two friends and your favorite professor. 

Come to Vancouver and …

  • meet the people whose research and case studies you’ve read
  • make professional contacts for that after graduation interview
  • learn practical performance improvement tools
  • network with practitioners from around the world
  • browse the ISPI bookstore to learn the latest research
  • actively participate in discussions
  • learn from the best and brightest in the field
