The
2011 Workers' Compensation Educational Conference will be the ninth conference in Oregon. In
response to numerous requests from participants in our workers' compensation system for more
training and information, WCD originally brought this conference to our great state in 2000.
The conference format was originally developed by the International Workers' Compensation Foundation
(IWCF) and is offered in several states around the country. IWCF is a nonprofit organization
established in 1988 to provide research, education, and communication to the workers' compensation
community. The Oregon conference is sponsored by IWCF with coordination by the Workers' Compensation
Division. A variety of concurrent
sessions and informational booths allow participants to get the answers they need. Participating
vendors show the latest in services, equipment, and materials. The conference also offers educational
credit hours for insurance agents, vocational providers, attorneys, claims examiners, disability
management, and claims managers. |
