What should I expect for the Virtual Experience?
CAEL’s hybrid conference will provide virtual attendees access to livestreamed and pre-recorded presentations and workshops. We understand attending virtual is not the same as attending in person, but you will be able to enjoy the timely and relevant content both during and after the conference.
What to expect
CAEL is giving virtual attendees the ability to map your own experience at the 2025 CAEL Conference. We know you won't be able to attend every moment, but you will have access to live sessions and recorded sessions with the ability to view them when it is convenient for you. Closer to the event, you will receive a minute-by-minute schedule so you can design an experience that is custom to you.
Keynote Sessions
All of the keynote speakers will be streamed live for the virtual audience. Tune in each day to attend live keynotes and view recorded workshops. Catch the sessions you missed on-demand for up to 90 days after the event ends.
