PHOENIX--The Self-Insurance Institute of America Inc. spent four days in the desert educating and entertaining its membership.

SIIA's 26th National Educational Conference & Expo, held at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort & Spa in Phoenix, drew about 1,500 registrants who attended educational sessions covering self-insurance, employee health care, third-party administration and a number of other topics.

A golf tournament kicked off the event, and receptions and hospitality suites were other social offerings at the conference.

Next year, SIIA will gather in Chicago for its annual conference Oct. 29-Nov. 1. Information on next year's meeting will be available at www.siia.org or by calling SIIA at 800-851-7789.
