Additionally, the conference will feature an optional half-day pre-conference workshop entitled "Job Descriptions--Exempt or Nonexempt?"

Expert speakers will include: Harold M. Brody, Esq., of Proskauer Rose; Marjorie Fochtman, Esq., of Nixon Peabody; Ron Garrity, Esq., of Simpson, Garrity & Innes; Diana Gregory, SPHR of Administaff; Marc Jacuzzi, Esq., of Simpson, Garrity & Innes; Allen Kato, Esq., of Fenwick & West; Thomas Makris, Esq., SPHR, of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman; Timothy Murphy, Esq., of Fisher & Phillips; Diane O'Malley, Esq., of Hanson Bridgett Marcus Vlahos & Rudy; Sandra Rappaport, Esq., of Hanson Bridgett Marcus Vlahos & Rudy; B. Scott Silverman, Esq., of Morrison & Foerster; Mary Topliff, Esq., of Law Offices of Mary L. Topliff; Allison West, Esq., SPHR, of Employment Practices Specialists; and Rhoma Young of Rhoma Young & Associates.

Full conference attendees are eligible for up to 15 recertification credits. The sessions are also approved for 15.25 hours of MCLE credit by the State Bar of California.
