This group is greatly responsible for helping to give apartment industry staff nationwide the opportunity to Get Educated and Invigorated at the largest national show in the multifamily housing industry.

For the thousands of apartment management employees who will attend the show at the Gaylord Palms Resort and Convention Center, the education gained will help them and inspire them when they return to work with new ideas and keen knowledge about all aspects of the apartment industry.

This year's conference includes a 50-session education program designed of nine distinct tracks based on all aspects of the apartment industry. Apartment professionals have the chance to invest in themselves and follow a professional development education track path--executive, development and rehabilitation, human resources, specialty housing, independent owners, personal development, marketing and leasing, Wild Card! or shared-interest roundtables. Or, attendees may choose to attend sessions at random, gaining knowledge on a variety of fronts.

"We are asking you to invest in yourself and your career by attending this conference," said NAA Education Conference & Exposition Chair Jerry Wilkinson, Wilkinson Group, and CoChair Jay Scott, Executive Director of the Columbus Apartment Association.

"Speakers, who have the expertise and experience to educate you about current topics in the industry, will provide you with ideas and take-home tools on issues affecting your professional growth and your company's bottom line," they said.

The three-day event also will host the largest national trade show in the multifamily housing industry with more than 350 exhibiting companies on a 175,000 square-foot hall, filled by companies showcasing their latest products and services to help multifamily housing professionals stay ahead of the pack in today's competitive market.

"The Platinum Sponsors see the value of name recognition throughout the country," said NAA Chairman of the Board Michael Tompkins, CAPS, CPM, CCIM. "They are leaders when it comes to supporting the industry as a whole and have stepped up to the plate to make things happen."

The 17 industry leaders who are Platinum Sponsors, representing a wide variety of products and services, have the distinct opportunity to solidify their positions in the industry at the conference. They are Apartment Finder, The Apartment Guide, AT&T, AZUMA Leasing, Coinmach Corporation, Comcast, CORT, For Rent Media Solutions, HD Supply, Intuit Real Estate Solutions, Lowe's Companies Inc., Mac-Gray, RealPage Inc., Rent.com, Yardi Systems Inc., Time Warner Cable and Verizon.
