Hundreds of fleet managers from throughout the United States and Canada will gather for the largest fleet management industry event of the year.

Spread out across four days, the I&E features over 60 hours of fleet training and educational sessions (including brand-new advanced level sessions designed specifically for veteran corporate fleet managers), an expo floor with more than 200 vendors, and the ability to network with colleagues of all experience levels. 

Hoping to build on the momentum from last year’s success, the 2011 I&E will once again feature leading executives from the automotive industry as keynote speakers.  This year’s lineup of speakers will be announced shortly.

Major preparation for the I&E is already underway. A new website has been created to provide complete conference details including schedules, hotel information, online registration, and frequently asked questions – this can be found at http://www.nafainstitute.org

Online registration is now open at the new website and early bird rates are in effect. Attendees registering before 31 December will receive $100 off the regular conference admission price. Breakfast and lunch meals for all four days are included in full conference registration. Including meals within the conference registration helps attendees anticipate their total costs and aids them with approval for business travel.

Discounted hotel rates are also available at the four official I&E hotels (Westin Charlotte, Hilton Charlotte Center City, Charlotte Mariott Center City, and Omni Charlotte Hotel).  Attendees need to make hotel reservations through the I&E website to take advantage of the block room rates.

The 2011 I&E takes place 9-12 April 2011 at the Charlotte Convention Center.
