News Brief

Free APEX software upgrade available


Published: February 29, 2008

The Convention Industry Council has released version 3.0 of its APEX Toolbox, software for occasional and junior planners that helps them use industry-wide data standards to create industry-specific items such as housing forms, rooming lists and event specifications guides.

“The technology advancements in Toolbox 3.0 are a major enhancement,” says Terri Breining, CMP, CMM, APEX chair and president of Concepts Worldwide Inc. “Toolbox is now able to integrate with the newest operating system used by the majority of planners and to accomplish more data-entry tasks, which will maximize its functionality. This means that several of the APEX practices will be much easier and more accessible to meeting planners.”

Registered users of versions 1.0 and 2.0 of the APEX Toolbox can upgrade to the new version for free.
