The success of the first two ABA Section of Labor and Employment Law Annual CLE Conferences has positioned the annual event as the premier meeting focusing on all aspects of labor and employment law. We are delighted to share with you the program agenda for the 3rd Annual CLE Conference to be held November 4–7, 2009, in Washington, D.C. We are excited to have the Young Lawyers Division (YLD) cosponsoring the Fundamentals Track again this year and hope to see many YLD members at the Conference.

Many of the features that made our first two CLE Conferences so successful will be present again this year:

• Prominent speakers and exciting speaker panels
• A full year’s worth of CLE credit at a price that can’t be beat
• A multitracked curriculum covering all aspects of your labor and employment law practice
• A multilevel program that will be of value regardless of your degree of experience
• Networking opportunities for you to meet with colleagues representing all perspectives in the labor and employment arena

The Section’s 3rd Annual CLE Conference provides an opportunity to meet and talk with top practitioners representing plaintiffs, employers, and unions, as well as in-house counsel, academics and government lawyers. In addition to top quality CLE programming, we’ve planned three networking receptions that will allow you to communicate with your colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere.

The CLE Conference Planning Committee is pleased to hold the meeting in Washington, D.C., during such a historic time. The Conference offers you the opportunity to learn about government initiatives from agency representatives, to observe government hearings and meetings, and to attend receptions and events at some of our nation’s most beautiful landmarks. We know that you will not be disappointed.

We look forward to seeing you in Washington, D.C., at the 3rd Annual CLE Conference.
