The Best Practices Conference will not only return to the West Coast in March, but it will also return to the most beautiful setting of any SharePoint conference I’ve yet attended: the Torrey Pines Hilton in La Jolla, CA.  Early registration has just opened, and not only will your early registration save your organization $100, but if you register before January 15, you’ll also be automatically entered for a chance to win a 250GB XBox 360 Kinect bundle. 

If you’ve attended a Best Practices Conference in the past, you’re already well aware of the caliber of the speakers and the range of session tracks offered, but did you know that two entirely new tracks will be offered in March?  The first new track is Case Studies / Lessons Learned, and it will allow managers and executives to learn from business leaders who are using SharePoint successfully within their organization.  The second new track that will be offered is titled No Code Customization, and will offer expert advice on SharePoint customization for the non-coders in attendance.  Not to worry, however, as the customary Devoloper, IT Pro, and BA tracks will also be fully represented in La Jolla.

So mark your calendars for March 7-9, 2011, secure your early registration, and start making plans to be in attendance at the Torrey Pines Hilton.
