5. Networking, networking, networking: From the opening kick-off breakfast to the Educational Fund Auction and the gala awards dinner to the closing luncheon, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to interact with your industry peers.

6. Cut through the hype: At No-Dig, the technical paper program is peer-reviewed by a committee for non-commercialism, relevance and high level of quality of information. Our goal is to ensure that you don’t have to sit through sales pitches. The No-Dig conference program has been expanded to include 140 technical paper presentations over five concurrent tracks. Every paid full conference attendee will receive a CD-ROM with the complete papers of the conference presented during the event.

7. Attend one of NASTT’s Good Practices Courses: Choose to attend one of NASTT’s five good practices post-conference courses on HDD, pipe bursting, laterals, new installation methods and CIPP lining and you’ll receive objective, reliable information that you can use.

8. Earn valuable Continuing Education Units (CEUs): Benefit from the in-depth sessions and courses offered at No-Dig 2010 in more ways than one. For every ten hours you attend, you receive one continuing education unit to advance your professional career.

9. Support NASTT’s Educational Fund Auction: The annual Auction is the must-attend event for No-Dig attendees. All monies raised at the auction support the activities of the NASTT student chapters. I personally encourage you to get involved in this effort by donating items and/or services to the Auction. By doing so, you are literally supporting the future of our industry in more ways than one.

10. Focused on you: No-Dig is the only North American conference totally focused on the needs of key decision-makers in the North American trenchless industry.
