Please consider submitting a proposal to present at the next ILCA Conference by October 12th. You do not have to be an IBCLC in order to submit. Here is the official invitation:
The 2010 International Lactation Consultant Association Conference, ILCA at 25: A Lactation Celebration!, is being held at the JW Marriott hotel in San Antonio, Texas, USA from July 21-25, 2010. This five-day Conference combines research and practice presentations with clinical and research skill development.
The ILCA annual Conference showcases speakers with exceptional information, expertise, and presentation skills in order to provide quality information to attendees. ILCA issues a Call for Proposals approximately 10 months before each annual Conference. This provides an opportunity for ILCA members and others in the lactation community to submit presentation proposals to share their insights, expertise and research with colleagues.
If you have insights or practices to share with colleagues and plan to attend the Conference, please consider submitting a proposal to participate in the 2010 program. Abstracts will be accepted for the following presentation formats, and for topics ranging from 1 to 6 hours:
• Proposal for a concurrent conference session presentation
• Proposal for a workshop conference session presentation
• Abstract for a research poster (may also be invited for oral presentation)
• Abstract for a project poster
The on-line submission site is open now. The deadline for proposal submissions is October 12 at 11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time (EST). Submitters may return to the on-line system to edit proposals any time before the deadline. Submitted proposals will be peer-reviewed by ILCA’s Conference Program Committee and ILCA’s Research Committee. Submitters of proposals will receive notification by November 11 of whether their work has been selected for presentation. Selected speakers will be asked to confirm participation by November 17.
We hope you will submit a proposal to participate in the 2010 ILCA conference!
Please visit the Speaker Submission Site to review the procedures and guidelines and to submit your materials. You may also visit the ILCA website for additional information. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at natalie@ilca.org.
Please share this information with colleagues who may also be interested in speaking at ILCA’s 25th Anniversary Conference!
Sincerely,
Natalie Porterfield

I would like to say, excellent post. Im unsure if it has been talked about, but when using Opera I can never get the entire webpage to load without refreshing many times. Maybe just my modem. Appreciate your work
