From the GAMESNETWORK listserv:

The North American Simulation and Gaming Association (NASAGA) has posted their call for proposals for their 2011 conference (early Oct. in Valley Forge, PA).

This is a group of educators, corporate trainers, and other folks who use games and simulations to teach or train.  It is a conference focused more on the practical side and less on the research side of using training games and simulation.

I’ve been the last few years, as I find it gives a different perspective on using games than we see in our research conferences.  Sessions are all interactive, and you engage with these training/teaching games and simulations from different domains.  I always come back with some new inspirations and ideas.

The call is at
