The Background Investigator

A Note From The Editor

  The Background Investigator has received many calls asking about our Spring Conference traditionally held in Long Beach. 

  This year (2004) in light of the fact that the NAPBS is holding their first Membership meeting at approximately the same time, and since we support the NAPBS and its goals, The Background Investigator has graciously opted out from hosting our normal Spring Conference.

  This does not mean we will not continue sponsoring conferences.  In fact, our annual November conference, being held at the Sheraton Sand Key Hotel in Tampa, will be bigger and better than ever!

  We would like to see the NAPBS succeed. 

  So support the NAPBS and see you in Tampa this November.

Special Note:

  The NAPBS has positioned its 2011 Fall Conference uncomfortably close date–wise and by location to our Annual Conference in Clearwater so stay tuned for update on when and where our next conference will be held.
