Excellence in Government
In 2008, the Excellence in Government experience will be different from ever before. Instead of one two-day conference, Excellence in Government 2008 will consist of two one-day events focusing on Key Issues in Federal Management. The first, devoted to human capital topics, will take place on May 12. The second event will be devoted to program management topics and will be on July 15. Each of the EIG 2008 events will be held at the Ronald Reagan Building in the heart of the nation's capital.
Excellence in Government is produced by Government Executive in cooperation with the Council for Excellence in Government and the National Academy of Public Administration.
