The setting for this exciting training institute is the new Gaylord National Hotel and Convention Center, a waterfront jewel in Prince George's County — directly across the Potomac River from Washington, DC. This world-class facility is the cornerstone of National Harbor, an innovative mixed-use development that offers an amazing array of entertainment and amenities just steps from the water, and in close proximity to the excitement of Old Town Alexandria and downtown Washington.
