Welcome to Modernization

Elevating Cougs is Here!

Tuesday and Wednesday (22 & 23).

Go to the conference lobby and sign in with your WSU credentials or register.

Join nearly 700 of your peers and hear from 73 speakers in 51 sessions across 3 tracks. New for this year are sessions that cross all 3 tracks, more interactive sessions, and we included topics and presenters based on feedback from last year’s conference.

To learn more about the topics and speakers, visit the schedule page.

Registration is open throughout the conference.

We’d love to see you there!
