NACOSS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE

NACOSS NATIONAL
Secretariat: Delta State University, Abraka

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE DESIGN

INTERNAL MEMO

TO: CHAPTER PRESIDENTS

DATE: 6^TH May, 2013


INTRODUCTION

The International Conference is emanating from the office of the National President and the theme of this conference has been tagged “Building World Standard Software Applications”. Overtime, we have discovered that more Nacossites across the country are picking up interest in software development and as such a lot of software programs have been developed to suit several users, but eighty percent (80%) or more of this software do not meet standard requirements and as such are not presentable for marketing, hence the theme of this conference.

As stated above this conference is being organized from the office of the National President because of certain important strides that we intend to take in this administration. It also suffices to say that this conference is not a replacement of the ICT challenge trip being handled by the VP international which will be coming up later this year.

Conference Aims

·         To launch our own Nacoss Mobile Chat Application which will be sold to Nacossites across the country upon return

·         To launch the Nacoss Desktop Application which will also be sold to Nacossites across the Nation and will aid us in our proposed Nacoss Hall of Fame Award during the National Convention

·         To give Nacossites access to the international software market

·         Lastly, to set a standard for every interest group that intends to partner with Nacoss on any platform.
