Academy Savant at Pittcon - 2011
Academy Savant is a developer, publisher and distributor of laboratory education and training programs, focusing on different types of Spectroscopy and Chromatography, General Lab Techniques and Safety.
Next week we are participating in the Pittcon Expo being held at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta (www.pittcon.org/expo/index.php). No doubt you know that this international show is one of the largest meetings in the field of analytical techniques. This email is to request you to help us find a couple of students to help out at our booth.
We need 2 presentable, confident, extrovert and friendly students to work 4-hour shifts Monday March 14th to Wednesday March 16th. It will be an excellent opportunity for graduating or post-graduate chemistry students who are about to enter the job market. Besides the Pittcon ‘Employment Bureau’ (www.pittcon.org/attendees/employment.php), they will be able to attend presentations, meet people in the industry, and walk around the whole exhibition and gain detailed knowledge of the world of chemistry after school.
The students will be compensated for their work, and admission to the Show will be paid for by Savant. Their job will be to attract passersby into the booth, determine their field(s) of interest and then give them relevant literature.
We would appreciate it very much if you could talk to your students and send us some names & contact details as soon as possible. We need to explain their responsibilities directly to them in advance of the conference.
To familiarize the students (and possibly yourself too) with Academy Savant, I am attaching a brief background note. Please also take a look at the information available on our website at www.academysavant.com.
Please feel free to call or email me, or have the students contact me directly: 1-800-472-8268 (800-4-SAVANT) – note we are 3 hours behind you! – or rabin@academysavant.com.
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards
