Course Description

Whether attending in person or virtually, accounting conferences offer powerful opportunities for discovery, connection, and growth. But without a clear plan, the excitement can quickly fade once the event ends. In this session, we’ll explore how to maximize the value of every conference—virtual or in-person—by setting intentional goals, capturing meaningful insights, and turning what you learn into real, measurable results. You’ll leave with practical tools to help you evaluate new technologies, implement fresh ideas, and drive real change in your firm or practice.

Learning Objectives

  • Identify key strategies for preparing to attend virtual and in-person accounting conferences that align with specific learning and business objectives

  • Describe methods for engaging during conference sessions and vendor interactions—both onsite and online—to capture valuable insights and opportunities

  • Develop a post-conference action plan to evaluate and implement relevant tools, technologies, or ideas within an accounting practice or firm

  • Determine effective techniques for maximizing networking opportunities during conferences to build professional relationships
