When you are not scheduled, you have the freedom to attend any sessions free of charge in exchange for your time.
Do I need to register for the conference as a volunteer?
No. Volunteers will be registered by the Volunteer Coordinator upon approval as volunteers exchange their service for the conference registration fee.
What sessions of the conference will I get to attend?
