The Fall 2015 Yardi Advanced Solutions Conference, or YASC for short, is coming to Anaheim October 7-9, 2015. For the third consecutive year, the Fall 2015 YASC will be hosted at the Hilton Anaheim, located in Orange County near the Anaheim Convention Center.
YASC Anaheim is projected to be one of the largest conferences to date, with an estimated 1,800 clients and 300 staff in attendance. The conference focuses on advanced software training, product updates, and exploring important industry topics. This year YASC will offer clients 200+ courses to choose from including courses tailored for IT professionals, executives, property managers, property owners, office staff, and trainers.
Along with the YASC courses, general sessions, and scheduled entertainment, we wanted to share a few local attractions that may interest clients visiting Orange County. Whether this is your first visit to the West Coast, or your tenth, we hope these opportunities will enrich your experience while at YASC.
