Key executives from Florida Drug Screening,
Inc (FDS) will be traveling to Seattle, Washington on April 15,
2004 for the annual Drug & Alcohol
Testing Industry Association (DATIA) National Conference. Brenda
Lawrence, Todd Shoulberg and industry consultant Bill Current will
join FDS President Joseph F Reilly at this annual event.
DATIA’s 8th Annual Conference
and Exposition – “Awaken Your Senses – Fresh Ideas
for Drug and Alcohol Testing” – will be the drug
and alcohol testing industry’s largest and most comprehensive
annual industry event, providing attendees insight, information,
and advocacy on issues that impact providers of drug and alcohol
testing services. Each year new and more efficient ways of performing
drug and alcohol testing are developed, new information is learned
by industry professionals, and companies continue to look for ways
to enhance the success of their business. This year’s agenda
will focus on providing attendees with up-to-the-minute information
on ways to not only increase the success of their company and career,
but to be able to do so and still have time to enjoy life.
Top-level speakers from the
industry will address the conference and interact with attendees
to discuss these areas of crucial importance. The DATIA conference
will provide the opportunity for individuals to learn from the experiences
of other industry professionals on how to best implement drug and
alcohol testing programs. DATIA’s unique and needed role as
an educator for the industry ensures that the conference will stand
up to its much-earned reputation with an agenda that promotes learning
from the experience of others in the industry.
Both FDS President Joseph Reilly
and Vice President Todd Shoulberg will be among the featured speakers
at this event. Reilly will assist with a special panel “Ask
The Board”. Reilly serving on the DATIA Board of Directors,
as Vice Chairman will join other DATIA Board members in a panel,
which will draw on years of experience answering pressing questions
concerning drug and alcohol testing. Shoulberg will join associate
Lisa Acuff with a presentation entitled Creating and Maintaining
Positive Client Relations. This session will show attendees how
to educate and counsel clients with tact and foster relationships
where the client sees providers as consultants rather than as lecturers
or order takers.

provide more information regarding FDS services including
