CONFERENCE OVERVIEW

Held in Washington, DC, attendees of this conference share quality time with representatives from every aspect of the retirement plan industry. This is an awesome learning opportunity attended by over 1,500 of your colleagues. Each year, there are new regulations and legislation to understand, new products and services on the market, and new opportunities to increase your professional knowledge, enhance your business services and products, and an opportunity to meet new friends and network with old ones. You’ll also have a chance to visit over 80 vendor displays in the exhibit hall. There are numerous sponsorship and marketing opportunities available. The Annual Conference offers 20 hours of ASPPA continuing education credits and provides Joint Board for the Enrollment of Actuaries (JBEA) credit hours for enrolled actuaries.

GREAT NEWS…SESSION HANDOUTS ARE GOING PAPERLESS!
This new paperless format means that there will no longer be an educational session handbook. Instead, all registrants will have several ways to access session handouts before, during and after the conference. Please visit www.asppa.org/paperless for more information on what you can do to prepare!
