First Federal Hispanic Career Advancement Summit
The first Federal Hispanic Career Advancement
Summit was held October 1, 2008, at the Crystal
Gateway Marriott Hotel in Arlington, VA. This
summit championed the advancement and
development of Hispanic Americans in the
federal sector – especially those at the GS-15
level who are eligible for promotion to the
Senior Executive Service.
Because registration for the summit reached the
limit of 650 within 48 hours, and more than
1,000 remained on a waiting list, the workshop
presentations are available at
http://www.federalhispaniccareeradvancementsummit.org/workshops.htm. Links
to the presentations are listed under the three
open enrollment workshop topics.
One of the workshops that was provided at the
summit was presented by
Dr. Samuel Betances on “Strategies for Effective
Leadership.” His workshop presentation is
available at
http: //www.federalhispaniccareeradvancementsummit.org/sel.htm.
