"Once again, it's time It's Time was a successful political campaign run by the Australian Labor Party (ALP) under Gough Whitlam at the 1972 election in Australia. Campaigning on the perceived need for change after 23 years of conservative (Liberal Party of Australia) government, Labor put forward a for learning - on a scale unequaled by any other single learning event in the infrastructure community," said Maureen Pomeroy, director, Bentley Institute. "Our BE Conference 2007 program features comprehensive, discipline-specific, professional training for Bentley users in the building, plant, civil, and geospatial verticals of the architecture, engineering, construction, and operations market. Bentley Institute will provide more than 600 courses representing close to 1500 learning units of training to help attendees stay current on technology and best practices and advance their careers." Continued Pomeroy, "Equally important, attendees can carry back this valuable learning to their organizations to increase productivity, enhance project quality, maximize the return on their investments in software, and help them become more globally competitive. Indeed, BE is a value-packed learning event." BE Executive Symposium The BE Executive Symposium is an invitation-only event that connects industry executives with researchers to discuss and address key challenges to improving the world's infrastructure.
