The 2010 North American Consulting School is right around the corner and we invite you to take this opportunity to participate as an industry leader sponsor.

Dear Industry Leader,

Let me take a moment to introduce you to the 2010 North American Consulting School. This intensive two-day learning experience program is facilitated by the Canadian Consulting Agrologists Association (CCAA). Every year, the North American Consulting School (NACS) is held to bring agricultural consultants from across Canada and the world together to discuss the issues that affect our market place with industry leaders and stakeholders.
The 2010 NACS will focus on ways to expand services through technology and networking opportunities. We will be discussing issues such as our current and future economy trends, locally and globally, the dollar, energy, grain and livestock marketing. Workshops are planned to provide the audience with up to date information on social networking, finance, insurance, tax treatments, and how to survive in today's economy. The CCAA is pleased to provide the various presentations by experts from Canada and the USA at the 2010 NACS.

There are three parts to the conference:

1. opening reception with a guest keynote speaker on Monday June 14, 2010
2. Tuesday June 15 and Wednesday June 16, 2010 are full days of plenary and workshop sessions
3. Tuesday evening will be a banquet with a guest keynote speaker.

Our goal is to have those people who can influence change in the industry attend the conference. We estimate that the top agricultural consultants, leaders and influencers and will attend this conference again this year including producers/ranchers, processors, food retail, industry stakeholders, and government.

First let me take a moment to thank you for your time and we look forward to you participating in this year's NACS. We know that you will find it a rewarding experience because your support allows us to continue to bring industry issues to the forefront and to give us all an opportunity to network with our fellow industry members.
