Location: Binyanei Hauma, Jerusalem International Convention Center!
Time: Registration opens at 8:00 a.m. - to approximately 6:00 p.m.

Note: We have finalized all sessions.

Depending on the requirements of the presenters, sessions may shift and no guarantee is made that all of the following sessions will be presented as listed below. Obviously, we will do our best to include these sessions, as well as several other challenging and interesting topics and obviously, given the number of sessions offered (11 currently) in comparison to how many any a single person can attend (4), there is a good chance you are going to have to choose your "best" choice and miss something. That being said, we are working to set up full videotape coverage of all sessions so that you can view them later in their entirety.
