Blue Bell, Pa., September 15, 2015 – PDS, a leading provider of human resource, benefits, recruiting, payroll, and time and attendance software, today announced that its User Group Association (UGA) will hold its 33rd Conference on May 10 – 13, 2016 at the Tampa Marriott Waterside Hotel & Marina in Tampa Bay, Florida. The conference is focused on helping clients of PDS’ industry-leading software solution to maximize their investment and more easily manage their workforce operations.

“We’ve just completed our PDS UGA Steering Committee Planning meeting, where we analyzed ways to make improvements to our user group conference format and content, based upon feedback that we’ve received from our attendees in prior years,” said Pat Palmer, senior vice president and product manager at PDS. “We truly believe that conference attendance is the key to educating our clients on how they can further leverage Vista HRMS®, and provide solutions to advance their organization. This year, we will offer sessions, workshops and product demonstrations throughout each day of the three-and-a-half day conference so our attendees can easily choose from the variety of content.”

Like the past conferences, the event will provide a variety of knowledge-sharing options for attendees. It will also include the popular brainstorming sessions from years past, which provide valuable input on product enhancements, and enable participants to help direct the future of Vista HRMS. Another valued component of the conference is the opportunity to network, troubleshoot and find solutions with the help of PDS Support, Professional Services, Development and Sales staff at the “Vista HRMS Solutions Center”.
