Early Childhood Conference

Registration and Scheduling

Registration is currently closed and will open on June 4, 2025.

There will be no onsite registration. All registrations must be completed before attending the Conference.

Educators will use the same system, Whova, to register and build their schedules for the Conference. The LDOE strongly encourages that email addresses used for Whova are the participants' individual email address. Personal email addresses have a history of blocking emails from event platforms and/or marking them as SPAM; please be sure to check your SPAM folders after registering.

• Admission to conference

• Conference sessions

• Lunch

• T-Shirt

All attendees will be provided with lunch on the day of the conference.
