Conference Information Update


Please Volunteer
The conference is planned entirely by volunteers. We need many on-site volunteers to make the conference run smoothly. Even if you can just volunteer 1 hour, it is much appreciated. Below are the volunteer links. Additional spots may be added closer to the conference so check back, thanks in advance.
Sunday   -   Monday   -    Tuesday

Sign Up @ Sched.org to Prevent Standing Room Only Rooms
Go to wemta14.sched.org and create a login or log in with facebook. I made a short video here:
By marking interested sessions, you will help us to adjust rooms (time slots stay the same) to prevent overcrowding. There is no printed schedule this year. You can download to your phone, export to a calendar and more!
