1999 American Industrial Hygiene Conference & Exposition June 5-11, 1999

[Guest guest]

I wonder if the AIHA plans to use any of the technology sources - like Real

Player's G2 program to make any of the conference available on the internet?

The largest occupational and environmental health meeting in the world,

AIHCE draws more than 10,000 occupational health and safety experts from all

over the globe to discuss and debate the latest issues in technical

sessions, roundtables, and forums. The conference, which includes a

world-class exhibition, also enables industrial hygienists to study and

advance their careers by offering an array of professional development

courses.

AIHCE'99 ( " Going Global - Advancing OEH & S Sciences Internationally " ),

to be held June 5-11, 1999, in Toronto.
