The mission of the Future Fisherman Foundation is to unite the sportfishing industry, a nationwide network of state outdoor educators, national conservation groups, and youth organizations dedicated to introducing America's youth to angling and the outdoors. The Foundation recognizes the challenges and distractions facing today's children. Research shows that our youth is more at risk than ever before, imperiled by a sedentary, plugged in lifestyle leading to early onset diabetes, cardiac risk and a total disconnect from the natural world. Through various programs, the Foundation and our partners hope to inspire our youth to engage in healthy activities promoting a deeper understanding and connection to nature and our aquatic resources.

About AOC "The Association of Old Crows ( AOC ) is a not-for-profit international professional association with over 13, 500 members and 180+ organizations engaged in the science and practice of Electronic Warfare ( EW ), Information Operations ( IO ), and related disciplines." AOC has members in 47 countries with 69 chapters in 20 countries. AOC's membership includes executives, scientists, engineers, managers, operators, educators, and military personnel. Founded in 1964, the AOC owns a headquarters building in Alexandria, Virginia, just outside Washington, DC. The name Old Crows emerged from the first large-scale use of Electronic Warfare during the WWII Battle of Britain and the US and allied bombing raids over Europe. The Allied Radar Countermeasure operators used the code name Ravens and employed receivers and transmitters to monitor and jam threat frequencies. Military jargon later changed Ravens to Crows. With origins in WWII, Electronic Warfare has been, and remains, a critical enabling capability in military operations in peace and war. With the evolution of digital/computer technology, Electronic Warfare ( EW ), Information Operations ( IO ), and related disciplines are increasingly necessary to achieve knowledge superiority, strategic and tactical dominance, and asset protection in both offensive and defensive operations. Information Operations include those actions taken to influence, effect, or defend information, information systems, and decision-making. The development of information technology also enables EW and IO systems to cover both the analog and digital domains including the entire acoustic, magnetic, seismic, and electromagnetic spectrum's. AOC promotes the exchange of new ideas and information, and the dissemination of new research and knowledge in the fields of Electronic Warfare and Information Operations.AOC provides a membership subscription to our premiere monthly professional magazine, the Journal of Electronic Defense, which includes news, information, technology updates, and articles on many aspects of defense electronics and information operations. AOC produces many one-and-two-day advanced technology conferences, forums, courses, and symposia each year ( classified and unclassified ) enabling representatives of US and friendly nations to discuss defense electronics and information operations issues, programs, and initiatives. Prominent leaders from the military, government, academia, and industry come together to address current policies, new programs, and advanced technology issues. Topics have included Information Operations; Modeling and Simulation; Directed Energy; ELINT; UAV/UCAV Payloads; Radar/EW; Joint Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses ( JSEAD ); Navigation Warfare; EO/IR; Intelligence, Surveillance, & Reconnaissance ( ISR ); Spacecraft and Satellite Protection and Time Sensitive Targeting; Homeland Security; Passive and Covert Radar; EW and IO fundamentals; and many more subjects of interest to EW/IO professionals. AOC publishes advanced technology and management studies in support of the government, the military, and industry. AOC-sponsored research committees have investigated the production of traveling wave tubes; the EW Industrial Base; EW Test Methodology; Information Warfare; EW Measures of Effectiveness; Airborne Electronic Attack? Analysis of Alternatives; EW Critical Technologies; A New Approach to EW Acquisition? The Partnership Process; and the Airborne Electronic Attack Analysis of Alternatives Study ( AEA AOA ). AOC distributes over $60, 000 annually, through the AOC Educational Foundation and affiliated chapters, for scholarships and grants to assist military enlisted personnel and US undergraduate students in electrical engineering, physics, mathematics, and related disciplines. AOC documents the history of Electronic Warfare and Information Operations through books, journals, research projects, and videos. The History of U.S. Electronic

Association of Clinical Research Professionals, also known by the acronym ACRP, is the primary resource for clinical research professionals in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device industries, as well as those in hospital, academic medical centers and physician office settings. ACRP was founded in 1976 to address the educational and networking needs of research nurses and others who supported the work of clinical investigations. ACRP offers various services to its members to enhance knowledge of clinical research, such as seminars, educational sessions, audio conferences, certification programs and forum activities. ACRP also includes investigator in the training process and offers continuing medical education credit hours covering a wide range of good clinical practice topics and human subjects protection issues. ACRP has headquarters in Alexandria, Va. with an office in the United Kingdom.
