There are lots of reasons to make plans to attend this year's CONCLAVE LEARNING CONFERENCE.

For the first time in CONCLAVE history, the organization is offering free admission to two events occurring during next week’s CONCLAVE 39 in MINNEAPOLIS. Both the traditional Aircheck Clinic and Career Fair can be attended by anyone without charge, including walk-ins and those registered attendees for the 39th annual LEARNING CONFERENCE. Both events are scheduled from 2-4p on FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14th, at the CROWNE PLAZA HOTEL & SUITES BLOOMINGTON, MN. Free parking is available at the adjacent CROWNE PLAZA parking lot.

The Aircheck Clinic is also free of charge. Those who wish to have their airchecks listened to should prepare a scoped three-minute aircheck (on disc). Participants will be offered airchecks on a first-come, first-served basis. No preregistration is required however participants will need to sign-up outside the Aircheck Clinic on the hotel’s second floor. THE CONCLAVE is still seeking PD’s and consultants willing to hear airchecks and give tips on improving their skills. To participate, contact Aircheck Clinic coordinator TOM KAY (tomk@theconclave.com).

The Career Fair and Aircheck Clinic are the only events available to be attended without charge at CONCLAVE 39. All Career Fair and Aircheck Clinic participants will be offered an opportunity to register for the remainder of CONCLAVE 39. Details can be found at the CONCLAVE registration desk.
