Registration and Sponsorship is Open for Innovations in Testing 2023 Early Bird Ends December 9th Registration and Sponsorship is open for the 2023 Innovations Conference scheduled for March 12 – 15, in Dallas, TX at the Hilton Anatole. The theme of next year's conference will be: Better Together – Learning. Assessments. Outcomes. The conference will also feature a virtual event, that will follow two weeks later, titled Innovations+Connect. 2023 Conference Chair, Isabelle Gonthier of PSI, made special note that, "this conference will not be a hybrid, in which the in-person and virtual conference are run simultaneously, but instead will be an opportunity to continue the conversation." Innovations+ Connect, will be a post Innovations in Testing virtual event that will be hosted on March 29th & 30th, 2023 and will be one hundred percent virtual. The event will feature recorded sessions taken from the in-person conference, but will also include opportunities for live discussion. These unique conversation style sessions will run from 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM EDT on Wednesday, March 29th and 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM EDT on Thursday, March 30th. "If you have ever attended a conference session and wished you could have had more time to ask the presenter or other attendees questions, or discuss the topic in more detail -- then this is an opportunity to do just that," Gonthier commented. All attendees of the 2023 ATP Innovations in Testing conference in Dallas, TX will have full access to the Innovations+ Connect event at no additional cost - and those that cannot attend the in-person conference are able to register for just the Innovations+Connect event. For both events - the early bird registration ends on December 9th. Gonthier also noted that the 2023 charity partner will be the Boys and Girls Club of Dallas, so registrants should stay tuned as to how they can support the selected charity. "I am not sure that all attendees always realize that ATP always gives back to the community in which it holds it conferences," she said. "It might be collecting books, as we did last year in Orlando, or donating toys to the local Children's hospital, as European-ATP conference goers did in London in October." She added that, "it also keeps the conference above the level of any local politics and allows conference goers to concentrate on the positive impact they can make in a region." On the topic of politics, ATP CEO William G. Harris added, "we hear about politics from time to time, but delegates need to understand that conference venues are chosen years in advance and based on cost and the logistical needs of ATP members." He advised delegates to "concentrate more on what they can bring to a region as a role model of inclusiveness, compassion, and healthy ways to debate on conflicting viewpoints."
