DUG 2004
Frequently Asked Questions:
On behalf of the Datatel Users’ Group Governing Board, we want to thank you for your participation in our organization. We are working to improve communications to our members about DUG and the Annual DUG Conference and have prepared the following information in response to comments received from conference attendees at last year’s conference.
The Conference Planning Committee takes time to review all the conference evaluations. Of the 1,601 individuals who attended the 2003 conference, 639 took time to complete a conference evaluation form. In reviewing these evaluations, several themes emerged. Of course we realize we have responses from only forty percent of the attendees, but we believe the issues raised are worthy of a response. We hope our responses will give you more information about the Conference and help you make appropriate plans for your attendance.
1. Meeting Room Temperature...
2. What is a SIG?
3. First time at the conference?
4. What is a roundtable?
A roundtable is a facilitated group discussion during which small groups meet together in the same session room to discuss and review topics relevant to the roundtable topic. It is an interactive session where you can share your questions and answers with fellow professionals. Examples would be an Admissions roundtable, or a Human Resources roundtable. Roundtables should have several ‘facilitators’ to help guide the discussions among the groups and report back to the larger group as a whole.
5. What should I do if I have dietary needs?
And we've prepared some more specific FAQ documents as well...
