Regional Conferences

Can't make it to Annual Conference? No problem. You can still experience the educational and networking advantages of your IACP membership by attending or hosting a regional conference.

What is a Regional Conference?

Regional conferences are essentially mini annual conferences that extend the educational experience of IACP into local and regional markets year-round. Like our grassroots events, regional conferences make it easy to meet and forge connections with IACP members in your neck of the woods. However, they go a step further: whether broad in scope or focused on a specialized industry niche, they are always chock full of workshops, demonstrations, and other educational experiences, designed specifically to expand and enrich your professional skill set.
