Hybrid Convening Attendance Details

CDC recommendations for in-person gatherings are constantly changing. Digital Promise is closely monitoring the situation and will continue to update our requirements and event precautions accordingly. To promote a safe convening, we have implemented the following safety precautions:

  • Proof of full vaccination must be provided during check-in to enter the convening
  • Masking is required for all indoor gatherings
  • Frequent sanitizing in the hotel and venues
  • Use of Go/Caution/Stop wristbands to indicate attendee preferences on proximity and social contact

In accordance with safety recommendations, we are inviting only the district superintendent to attend the in-person component of the convening. If a superintendent is unable to attend, the district may send another representative to join us.

Other district colleagues are invited and encouraged to register and attend the League convening virtually to participate in online sessions via Swapcard, our all-in-one event platform!
