The Government Statistics Section, Business and Economic Statistics Section, and Washington Statistical Society will sponsor the 2nd Seasonal Adjustment Practitioners Workshop (SAPW 2018). The workshop will take place April 26, 2018, at the Bureau of Labor Statistics in Washington, DC.

This workshop provides an opportunity for those who work with official statistics and seasonal adjustment to present interesting issues, problems, and applied research to a knowledgeable audience. Organized by the US Census Bureau and Bureau of Labor Statistics, it is a one-day conference for public employees (and others) actively involved in seasonal adjustment. This is your opportunity to do the following:

• Share experiences in producing seasonal adjustments
• Give details of interesting problems and possible solutions
• Discuss best practices in seasonal adjustment and time series modeling
• Share lessons learned, tips, and shortcuts
• Present applied research in seasonal adjustment practice

A call for papers and registration information is forthcoming. Send an email to esmd.seasonal.workshop@census.gov for more information or to volunteer to be on the program committee.
