Description

The Office of Personnel Management’s (OPM) Benefits Officers Training and Development Group (BOTDG) is hosting a five-day Benefits training conference which will provide a series of workshops on Retirement, Insurance, Social Security, and Thrift Savings Plan Administration. As part of the conference, there will be a vendor’s exhibit area. The following information is for vendors who may wish to exhibit at the 2009 Federal Benefits Officers Training Conference to be held at the Hilton Miami Downtown in Miami, FL. Subject: 2009 Benefits Training Exhibits The U.S. Office of Personnel Management, Center for Retirement and Insurance Services, Benefits Officers Training and Development Group (BOTDG) will hold its 2009 Benefits Training Event in Miami FL on May 11 – 15, 2009 at the Hilton Miami Downtown located at 1601 Biscayne Blvd, Miami, FL, 33232. This year the Benefits Training Event will have a vendor exhibit area on May 13 and 14. The purpose of the training is to update the group on initiatives in the area, share information among agencies about actions some have taken to deal with benefits education, increased workloads, etc., and address crosscutting issues in retirement, insurance, Social Security, workers compensation, and Thrift Savings Plan administration. In addition, this year’s event will feature a 2-day workshop, Benefits Planning – The Road to Retirement Readiness (held on May 13 and 14), which will include the 3rd Annual Symposium on Retirement Financial Education and Federal retirement and benefits related plenary and breakout sessions. This 2-day workshop will have general sessions of interest to all, providing an overview of our retirement financial education programs as well as news and updates on current Federal benefits programs. In the past approximately a third of the attendees were Federal agency headquarters level staff with responsibility for administering the benefits programs within their agencies. The other attendees were field staff with benefits administration responsibilities at the field level. We anticipate approximately 450 agency representatives to attend this event. Up to 15 exhibit spaces are available. Exhibitors will rent the space directly from Powertrain, who is acting on OPM’s behalf to manage the exhibit booths and facilitate set up and dismantle with the on-site display company. The rental application and payment will be submitted to Powertrain. Powertrain will accept payment by check, VISA or Mastercard. Participation in the exhibit area does not mean that the U.S. Office of Personnel Management in any way endorses or approves the vendor or its products or services. Exhibitors may not represent in any way that their participation at the Benefits Training event represents any endorsements or approval by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. Exhibit spaces will be allocated on a first come first served basis. Registration must be received by April 10, 2009. The exhibit area will be in the Ballroom Foyer area of the Hotel. Exhibitors may set up beginning at 8:30 am, May 13th. Exhibits must be removed by 4:00pm May 14th. Sessions in the Ballroom begin at 8:30 am each day and end at 4:30 pm. The attendees will have a number of opportunities to visit the exhibit area on May 13th and 14th. The staffed exhibit booths will be 8’ by 10’ with pipe and drape and will include signage, an electrical outlet, one table and two chairs. The cost of a staffed exhibit booth is $ 1,150.00 for an 8’ by 10’ booth. Any other items needed for your booth; such as, VCR/DVD with monitor, phone line, internet access, etc., is available for an extra charge. You must notify Powertrain of any additional requests. For additional information and an exhibit area registration form, please contact Brandon Mitchell of Powertrain, 301-731-0900 ext 110.
