• Attendee Interest Survey

  • Because of the current public health situation, we are beginning to evaluate options for how to make us a safe experience for attendees and vendors. The conference is scheduled February 25-28, 2022 at A Lodge in B City. Your feedback as a prior attendee is going to help shape the conference and I appreciate your time providing it as our Committee leans in next month to make some important decisions. 

  • General

    As you know, pulling off a conference like this under current conditions is a balancing act between individual and community safety concerns as well as balancing the event budget and your own practice's financial situation.
  • Did your company/practice implement a travel ban or ban on conference attendance this spring?
  • Will your company/practice reduce the amount of C funds available for you to use on a registration for February 2022(based on when you typically register?) Or, if you pay for the conference yourself, do you intend to reduce your C spending this coming year?
  • Based on finances alone (assuming there was no community spread, no health risk, no travel bans), would a potential or actual reduction eliminate the probability of your attendance in 2022?
  • How likely are you to attend the event?
  • Assuming the same, how many weeks in advance would you register and get a hotel reservation for the event? Let's also assume that the closer we get to event, the less refund you would get back for a cancellation.
  • Since you are somewhat unlikely or unlikely to attend an in-person conference, what factor(s) affect or have led to that decision?

  • Important Factors

    Different attendees have different priorities for coming. Please tell us which factors are most important for you in deciding whether or not to attend in a given year.

  • In-Person Education

    The Lower Pavilion seats 120 people under normal circumstances. In order to accomplish social distancing of 6 feet, we would probably need to cut the capacity down to 40-50 people at a time.
  • One option is to have people sign up for the sessions they want to attend in person. They can skip the remaining sessions or watch the sessions live from other parts of the hotel (theater, conference room, hotel room, etc.) or pick up those sessions optionally as post-event recordings for credit? What do you think
  • One option is to eliminate the exhibit hall alltogether (or drastically reduce the number of exhibitors, like to 6) and split the education seating area into two sections. It would affect the way we do socials, perhaps splitting them into upper/lower pavilion education rooms/social areas. Without the exhibitor booth fees this would necessarily add $125-$200 to the conference registration fee.

  • Virtual Attendance

  • If we were forced to go to a virtual platform entirely, what is the likelihood you would pay to attend sessions live or watch recordings for post-event credit?
  • If we went virtual there are several ways we could accomplish this live: spread it out live over the course of several days and maybe even a couple of weeks. This could include live general sessions, breakout sessions for more discussion and learning, and some purely social chat times. Which of these is appealing (check all that apply)?

  • Exhibitor Hall

  • How important is the exhibitor hall to you for gaining personal or professional resources?
  • If we are able to hold our in-person conference at full capacity, what safety precautions would you recommend we implement to make you feel comfortable? It is assumed we will have ample amounts of hand sanitizer available and disinfect high touch surfaces.
