ANSI Homeland Security Standards Plenary


The seventh Plenary meeting of the ANSI Homeland Security Standards Panel (ANSI-HSSP) will be held on October 2, 2008 from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in Washington, DC.

The 2008 Plenary will address Public Law 110-53, Implementing the 9/11 Commission Recommendations Act of 2007, specifically the Title IX Voluntary Certification Program for Private Sector Preparedness. Panel sessions will cover the standards involved in the Title IX program, details on accreditation/certification, and the business case for certification.

The ANSI-HSSP Plenary provides this opportunity for the homeland security, emergency preparedness, and business continuity communities (public sector, private sector and standards developing organizations) to come together to discuss current issues and challenges, strategic approaches, recent successes, and future outlooks. Feedback from past plenary meetings has cited not only the useful information sharing and dialog during the formal program, but also the valuable networking and connections established for future collaboration. Additional details and the meeting agenda can be found on the meeting web site or by contacting Matt Deane at mdeane@ansi.org.

The conference fee is $299 for non-ANSI members. If you are an ACP member, you can receive a discounted conference rate of $249. To receive the ACP discount, write “ACP” in the registration fee box on the registration form.
