Subject: [uk-usability] Call for conference volunteers: UPA 2010
International conference, Munich
Dear colleagues and peers,
The 2010 Usability Professionals' Association (UPA) Conference will be held
May 24th to 28th in Munich, Germany.
For the first time in its history, the UPA conference will travel to the
heart of Europe. Our key theme, "will focus on how UX professionals can
create great user experiences across different cultures, meeting the
challenges of delivering to diverse audiences. We are excited about all the
opportunities that await us!
The success of the yearly conference is very much dependent on the support
of its conference volunteers. So, we are building a team of friendly,
committed volunteers to help with a variety of behind-the-scenes activities
such as staffing the information booth, helping at the registration desk,
and assisting session chairs and tutorial instructors. In return, volunteers
receive greatly-reduced conference registration fees and the opportunity to
interact closely with leaders in the User Experience field who will be
attending the conference as speakers/presenters, conference planners, and
participants.
If you are interested in volunteering for the UPA 2010 Conference in Munich,
Germany, please complete the online volunteer application
(http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&formkey=dGIzUVRNYXFxYk1PdXlFS

applicants, and the next couple of weeks, the first wave of volunteer
decisions will be made and communicated. Depending on the number of
available volunteer positions, additional application reviews/decisions may
be made in the subsequent weeks leading up to the conference.
