ICPF 11th Annual Careers in Corrugated Teleconference
The International Corrugated Packaging Foundation’s eleventh annual Careers in Corrugated Teleconference has been scheduled for Wednesday, February 24, 2010 from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM EST. Broadcasted live from Michigan State University Studios, last year's interactive Teleconference had a record 17 colleges and universities participating with an estimated 400 packaging and graphic communication students. This year's program will consist of a panel of industry executives addressing elements of the industry's sustainability, and providing information on the operations and career paths within an independent corrugated corporation and a publicly held integrated corporation.
The industry panel will be followed by an interactive question and answer period for participating students. The ICPF Teleconference will end with a live, ninth annual Best of the Best student team competition consisting of those Cal Polytechnic University Millersville University and Mohawk College student teams that qualified to participate by placing in the 20009 AICC student design competition.
