The Legal Service Corporation (LSC) has announced that registration for the 2011 Technology Initiative Grants (TIG) Conference is now underway.

The 11th Annual TIG Conference will be held in Albuquerque, NM at the Embassy Suites Albuquerque, 1000 Woodward Pl. NE, Albuquerque, NM 87102. The TIG Conference room rate is $81 per night.

Conference Fee: Conference Fee is $420 - includes all sessions and most meals.

Registration: Go to www.regonline.com/tig2011 to register for the 2011 TIG Conference.

PLEASE NOTE: If you have a pending 2010 TIG application, do not register as a 2010 TIG recipient until you have received your TIG Award Package and uploaded the signed award acceptance letter back into LSC Grants. Grantees will be notified by email when TIG Award Packages are available to download from LSC Grants.

Who Should Attend: TIG recipients, IT staff, project managers, executive directors, legal services administrators, website coordinators, document assembly coordinators, attorneys, or anyone with an interest in how to use technology in the delivery of legal services.

What's Covered: Topics covered will include project planning and management, online document assembly, Limited English Proficiency (LEP) resources, cloud computing, virtualization, website accessibility, information security, litigation technology, social media networking and listening, recruiting partners for technology projects and breakout sessions for the statewide websites. Plus, important sessions covering TIG reporting and evaluation requirements.

There will be an opportunity to exchange information in more informal 'ask the expert' and 'unconference' sessions that attendees will help determine at registration, and we are planning another 'Ignite' style session to provide some fast-paced presentations highlighting technology project successes, new ideas and lessons learned.

For more information, please view the 2011 TIG Conference preliminary agenda.

Submit an IGNITE SESSION PROPOSAL by November 28, 2010.
