What is the AASLH Virtual Conference?
The 2022 AASLH Virtual Conference will be held on November 1 – 3. Each day will feature a plenary session followed by concurrent or brown bag sessions. Each day will end with networking happy hours.
The Virtual Conference is designed to be an inspirational and informative experience, with flexibility for incorporating emerging issues and broad reach for bringing in more voices. The Virtual Conference is more accessible for many people because of its lower financial and time cost, which makes it possible to include a larger percentage of our members and nonmembers around the country. We can also be more responsive to crucial topics that emerge for the field in the months and weeks beforehand. Participants will be encouraged in multiple ways to connect with each other, build their networks, and to continue discussions outside of sessions.
