ACPE brings back the Winter Institute

It can be hard to think about 2005 when you still need to make it through November and December. Here's something to look forward to. Join ACPE in February at the Westin La Paloma in Tucson, Arizona, for a few days or a full week of education and recreation.

Experience the Institute

Learning with your colleagues is an important part of the meeting, but equally important is the opportunity to get away from your normal work environment to refresh your thinking and your body.

The Westin La Paloma provides an inspirational setting for our courses. Nestled at the base of the Santa Catalina mountains, the La Paloma is one of our members' favorite destinations. In addition to a beautiful setting, the resort has top-rated golf courses, 10 tennis courts, hiking trails and a kids club for children.

Tucson features a wealth of outdoor and indoor activities for all levels. There will be several bonus sessions early in the Institute to help you plan your leisure time to include art museums, desert horseback rides, shopping and everything in between.
