Hi,
Thought I would let anyone who is interested know...
eSchool News is pleased to announce that due to
the sell-out status and high praise earned by our
GRANTS & FUNDING FOR SCHOOL TECHNOLOGY
conference held last April in San Diego, Calif., a
THIRD conference is scheduled January 27-28, 2000, in
New Orleans, LA at the Hotel Inter-Continental.
This critically-acclaimed, 2-day event is a
hands-on, how-to professional development
conference that brings you together with corporate,
foundations, and federal/state grant GIVERS to
deliver your grants-and-funding team all the tools
necessary to find and secure big dollars for your
technology programs. This event is proudly sponsored by
eSCHOOL NEWS.
