2020 Registration Process
Because we've gone virtual for 2020, there are some changes to registration. For your $50 conference
registration fee, you get:
1. Access to All General Sessions: These are automatically added to your registration. You can
remove them if you are unable to attend, but it doesn't change the cost.
2. Access to one course in each of the Break Out sessions...all seven of them: You'll need to make
your choice in advance so we can send out connection information. You can come back into this
registration to select a different option until September 11 at 5 p.m.
3. We need an email for each person registered to send them the connection information. (Using the
same email for multiple conference registrations will be very confusing for the recipient as you
could get multiple emails for the same time slot!)
4. Registrants will receive an email with information about accessing the conference event app,
which will serve as the main hub for all of the various workshops, general sessions and other live
events.
Payment can be made by credit card or check. To pay by check, complete the online registration and
print a copy of your receipt and mail with payment to the League:
PO Box 8296
Des Moines, IA 50301
Exhibitors
Thank you to our 2020 virtual exhibitors and sponsors. Attendees will have the chance to visit
virtual booths, network with exhibitors, fill out surveys for chances to win prizes and more!
