MCE to Sponsor VTCCU 2005

Rancho Cordova, CA (April 18, 2005)

Motion Control Engineering, the industry's leading manufacturer of non-proprietary elevator controls, is pleased to announce its participation as the major sponsor of VTCCU 2005-the National Vertical Transportation Conference for Colleges and Universities-hosted by the Facilities Management Services Division of Georgia State University from June 8 thru 10.

VTCCU addresses the need to establish a network of contacts to exchange ideas relative to elevator maintenance in academic facilities. The exchange of information helps bring effective resolutions to the many problems faced by facilities professionals. The conference is geared to individuals involved in the construction, maintenance or purchasing of any type of vertical transportation for a college or university.

The theme for VTCCU 2005 is "Modernization: When and How?" Educational sessions will explore a variety of relevant topics and panel discussions will focus on Non-Proprietary Equipment and Machine Room Less Elevators. Georgia State University will also host VTCCU 2006.

For more information about VTCCU 2005, contact Marty Waterfill at (414) 651-1957 or Edith Madison at (404) 651-2407.
