NIEM Training Event | OASIS EI Member Section Reception & Showcase

OASIS Members,

The Emergency Interoperability (EI) Member Section is planning to host a
two-hour reception on Wednesday, 24 August at the NIEM Training Event,
following the spotlight session that covers some of our EM standards. During
this reception, OASIS members are invited to participate in a solution
showcase.  This showcase will be integrated into the reception and will
provide our members with an opportunity to demonstrate their use of the EM standards.
Below is an outline of the showcase participation for your review.  Please
feel free to contact me directly with any questions or concerns.  

Kind regards,

 Jane
