Opportunities for professional training and education will be available at the 2014 NMEA International Marine Electronics Conference and Expo, to be held October 8-11, at the Sanibel Harbor Marriott Resort & Spa in Fort Myers, Fla. The NMEA has also made it possible for marine electronics dealers to provide training for technical personnel.
All full conference registrations qualify for one training course at a 50% discount, a savings of $225 - $325. This benefit is offered only at the 2014 NMEA Conference & Expo and may be traded within a company. For example, if an owner of an NMEA dealership paid for a full registration, that owner could pass the discounted training off to one of his or her employees for use either at the NMEA Conference, or later, at one of the many NMEA training sessions offered around the nation. The discounted training also includes a free one-day exhibit pass
