 Justify your Trip

The conference committee believes the value of attending the conference is self-evident, but just in case you need some help justifying it to your institution, we've created a sample letter for you.  Download Letter here.

 Policies

In 2026, we will be switching our conference App to Sched! This is an easy way for attendees to have all of the agenda, session and attendee information at their fingertips. There will not be any paper copies of session presentations or handouts at the event. Two weeks before the conference, you will be provided with access to the conference app, to connect with fellow attendees, review presentations and download session handouts. Access to the conference app will be available for 3 months after the event.

Dress Code Business casual dress is suggested for all events.

Refunds - Requests for refunds will be honored only if notification of cancellation is received in writing (email) on or before June 1, 2026. Cancellation by telephone is not sufficient. Registrants who fail to cancel will not be refunded their registration fee. No refund will be honored after June 1, 2026. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. Substitutions may be made if registrant cannot attend. Please notify Christina Hoven at [email protected].
