Dear Theresa,

 

The State of Colorado Governor's Office of Information Technology and
CSIA are pleased to announce the 2nd annual State FRAC Symposium: "FRAC
and Beyond", on August 31-September 1, 2009 in Denver, Colorado.

First Responder Authentication Credential (FRAC) programs are growing
across the country, and the standards and policies continue to develop.
This two-day symposium brings together thought leaders, policy makers,
and early adopters of FRAC to discuss these and related topics. Hear
from Federal, State, Local, and CI/KR leaders on the most current
information about these programs and future strategic direction. 

The Symposium's goal is to provide attendees with a forum to share
knowledge, experiences and best practices with State, Local, and Federal
colleagues on FRAC.  Topics to be discussed include: 

*       Update on Target Capabilities
*       PIV I Guidance for Non-Federal Credential Issuers 
*       Cyber Security and FRAC Update 
*       Convergence of Federal Programs to Achieve Interoperability 
*       NIMS Credentialing Guidelines 
*       NIPP Partnership Framework 
*       Funding Opportunities 
*       Return on Investment for FRAC Programs
*       Interoperability: what are the Inter vs. Intra State
Requirements 
*       Use Cases for Routine and non-Emergency Use

Finally, the Symposium will explore several issues critical to State and
Local expansion of these programs to provide recommendations back to our
Federal partners.

Who You Will Meet
The audience of the State FRAC Symposium, hosted by the State of
Colorado's Office of Information Technology, is comprised of
senior-level participants from the State as well as Federal levels.
2008 participants held titles such as Executive Director, EMS Manager,
Homeland Security Special Assistant, Grants Manager, CISO, Assistant
Deputy Director, Critical Infrastructure Protection Coordinator, Section
Chief, CIO and Regional Program Manager.  Symposium attendees
represented a wide range of States including Illinois, Missouri, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.


What past attendees are saying:

"A void has been filled by this conference. We need this annually. The
opportunities here are tremendous for states at all stages of FRAC
rollout. We're building a bond with the other States in attendance and
knowing I can call on them for help in this process is amazing. I will
definitely be returning next year along with as many colleagues as I can
find."  -Eric Epley, Executive Director, Southwest Texas Regional
Advisory Council for Trauma (STRAC)

"At the Denver FRAC Symposium the high altitude enhanced innovative
thinking and promoted unprecedented collaboration.  Lasting partnerships
were formed and credentialing program development was advanced to new
levels.  The venue suited both technical and operational interests.
Everyone walked away with a better understanding of the challenges and
benefits of interoperable credentialing.  The next FRAC Symposium is
sure to be right on target!"  -Mike McAllister, Governor's Office of
Commonwealth Preparedness, Virginia

"The opportunity to have an open forum to discuss how to move forward
together is invaluable. In a day and a half we covered more ground
together than any of us could have covered in a year working alone.
Learning how to align Missouri's efforts with other state efforts and
how we can interoperate with the Federal government would have been
nearly impossible without attending this symposium."  -David Finch,
Special Assistant Homeland Security, State of Missouri

"The opportunity to bring the national leaders and implementers of the
FRAC systems together and learn from each other is a tremendous
advantage.  Because of the interactions, discussions, presentations and
sharing of processes, I have been able to enhance the planning effort
locally.  Because of the symposium, I was able to learn from the other
representative who had already accomplished some of the objective I have
front of me."  -Knox Walk, EMS Manager, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania
