Regional and Professional Group Conferences

The Region and Professional Group Conferences bring together the experiential education community in a particular geographic area or area of focus – members and non-members – to work, talk, network, play, and learn together in an educational (and fun!) environment.

All regional events and conferences are entirely volunteer run. Each year, conference and event offerings depend on the capacity of volunteer teams, so events vary year-to-year! Regional teams are always seeking more volunteers!

There are plenty of opportunities to Volunteer at our International and Regional Conferences!
