The DLS Conference does not offer single-day registration. Attending the full conference ensures sufficient audience attendance and allows attendees to make the most of the sessions and networking opportunities.

Is there a maximum number of people who can attend the conference?

Cancellations received prior to March 21, 2016, will receive a 100% refund. Cancellations received after March 21, 2016, will receive a 50% refund. There will be no refunds issued after April 10, 2016.

Do you offer any financial assistance to attend the conference?
We are not able to provide financial assistance to attend the conference.

Do you offer discounted registration for students, first-time attendees or retirees?
Unfortunately, we do not offer discounted registration for students, first-time attendees or retirees.

Will a virtual component be available (streaming video, recordings, etc.)?
Due to the high cost of providing a virtual conference, we do not currently offer a virtual component. 

Is there a cost associated with attending a pre-conference workshop? How do I register for a workshop?
There is no additional cost to attend a pre-conference workshop. However, the number of participants for each workshop is limited and based on a first-come, first serve basis. To reserve a spot in a specific workshop, contact the Conference Coordinator.
