Recording and Post-Conference Access to Recordings

All conference presentations will be recorded and registrants will be able to access them after the event.  By registering for this conference, you agree/give permission that your communications may be recorded and that we may post these recordings on the conference website to share with others.

How It Works

Participating in the conference is easy.  You will need a high speed internet connection to participate in ‘real time’ in the conference events.

You’ll see the visuals via the internet on your computer in a virtual meeting room.  To hear/speak, you’ll either plug in a headset to hear through your computer speakers or you can call into a telephone line (long distance charges to the U.S. apply).

For telephone audio, you can use a landline or cell phone; internet telephony services (such as Skype or Google Voice) also will work.  For internet telephony, you will need to establish an account and pay for the per-minute charges (which generally are low) in order to connect to the telephone line.

You also can participate if you have dial-up internet.  You’ll call a telephone number to hear/speak and we’ll provide you with PDFs of the presentations that you can follow off line.

Continuing Education Credits

If you are an accredited planning professional, continuing education credits may be available from your country’s planning association. Please check with your planning organization about eligibility and instructions for obtaining credit for your participation in conference events.

Note that we will only be able to confirm the participation of the individual conference registrant for the purpose of claiming continuing education credits. This means if several individuals in your organization would like to broadcast the conference using one log-in (such as in a conference room), only the person who officially registers will be able to obtain continuing education credits for their participation.  This person also must be the person to sign on (using their full name) in order to claim credit, as we must have a record of that person's attendance, as required by professional accrediting bodies.

12.0 AICP CM Credits Approved as a Multi-Part Event

Conference schedule subject to change at the discretion of the conference planning committee based on presenter availability or technical requirements
