GO BEYOND THE CLASSROOMS!
Not all education comes from the classroom…PDS XXII is the best opportunity you have to meet and network with your counterparts in other Military Services. Networking is never dull when you participate in our Service Enlisted Leadership Panel on Tuesday, 2 February 2010. Make plans to join us for lunch both days in our 200+ booth Trade Expo, too.
Essential Tools for a Global Community
The theme for PDS XXII Atlanta is "Essential Tools for a Global Community." The field of Military Housing has been an evolutionary one. PDS is a rare opportunity for Military Housing Professionals, in all branches of the Military Service, including private sector employees, to gain insight and fresh perspectives by learning next to their counterparts. We believe this will help refine the tools needed to create a global community of Military Housing.
At PDS XXII, PHMA and MHLI will be helping Military Housing Professionals gain the essential tools for a global community of Military Housing in all the Services. PDS Instructors will lead training courses and general sessions that cover a myriad of topics that are foremost in the minds of everyone involved in Military Housing and Lodging. Service Days Seniors will deliver presentations on current topics on Wednesday, 3 February 2010.
We strive to help Military Housing Professionals contribute towards better quality housing for our military members and their families, now and in to the future. We work towards raising the proficiency and professionalism with the Military Services’ housing profession through improved communications and networking, education and training and professional recognition.
GENERAL SESSION
Senior Enlisted Leadership Panel
This is a great opportunity to be able to listen to and interact with the Senior Enlisted Leadership from each of the military departments, including Coast Guard. These unique individuals not only represent their Services’ enlisted personnel to their respective Service Chief, but they also testify annually to Congress as well as serving on many boards and in many forums to enhance the overall military career of all enlisted personnel. Each speaker is provided time to discuss specific “hot housing topics” within their Service and then a moderated panel allows a significant block of time for Q&A’s on housing related issues.
