Important Conference Information

Conference Scholarships

AFCC will offer scholarships for the conference. Scholarships include pre-conference institute registration, conference registration, meal functions (luncheon and the Friday evening celebration), and access to the AFCC hospitality suite. Some scholarships may include stipends to help with travel and accommodations, prioritizing applicants with high travel costs, international status, and financial need. The scholarship application is available here or on the AFCC website, afccnet.org. The scholarship application deadline is March 3rd, 2025. Recipients will be notified in late March.

Exhibit Forum

The Exhibit Forum will be open during conference hours and provide an opportunity to meet face-to-face with representatives to discuss your needs and the products and services they offer. If you are interested in an exhibit table or other advertising opportunities, please contact AFCC Program Associate, Abby Rebholz at [email protected] or 608-664-3750.

AFCC Hospitality Suite

Join AFCC conference attendees for informal networking and refreshments Wednesday and Thursday from 9:00PM–12:00AM and on Friday after the evening celebration until midnight. Please wear your name badge. The hospitality suite location will be included in attendee emails and on the conference portal. AFCC will send out more details closer to the date of the conference.

Taste of New Orleans

Sign up before 1:30PM on Thursday to join a group of 8–10 for dinner—space is limited! Restaurant menus and sign-up sheets will be available onsite Thursday morning. Participants are responsible for food, beverage, and transportation costs.
