The 2020 AISES National Conference was planned to take place in Spokane, WA. However, at this time, it is impossible to predict where Washington might be in their phased re-opening in October to allow AISES to practically and safely host the National Conference. After discussions with the Spokane Convention Center and hotels, it was determined that the best course of action at this time would be to transition to a 100% virtual conference and bring the event to Spokane for our traditional in-person event during the fall of 2023.
The AISES National Conference will continue as a one-of-a kind virtual event on October 15 – 17 with some preconference events on October 14. The conference will include most of the traditional in-person activities through the virtual platform including networking suites, an opening ceremony, sessions for all tracks, research presentations, Indian Country’s largest College and Career Fair, and so much more. As a virtual event, AISES can provide conference attendees new ways to safely network, learn, and interact with all conference attendees and presenters.
