Virtual Attendee Resource Page

We’re excited to have you join us virtually at the 2024 AMCHP Conference! We have made some improvements based on feedback from 2023 AMCHP Conference virtual attendees and wanted to share what you can expect out of your 2024 virtual conference experience.
We will also use this webpage to post resources created specifically for 2024 AMCHP Conference virtual attendees.

• Virtual attendee webinar:AMCHP hosted two webinars for virtual attendees to learn what you can expect and how to make the most out of your virtual conference experience.  If you missed the sessions, you can view the recording HERE. 

• Tailored virtual attendee resources:AMCHP created several resources in 2023 that covered topics like overall pro tips, how to engage with participants, how to engage with different session types, and how to best use the conference platform and conference app. AMCHP is creating similar virtual attendee resources for the 2024 AMCHP Conference that will be posted on this page and emailed to all virtual attendees.

• More sessions for you to attend: At the 2024 AMCHP Conference, there will be five (5) blocks of virtual-only workshops offered from Sunday through Tuesday (in 2023, virtual workshops were only offered on Tuesday). This will allow you more choices in the sessions you attend since you will have several concurrent virtual workshops to choose from in each block of virtual-only workshops. There are also seven (7) blocks of in-person workshops and in each of these workshop blocks, one workshop will be livestreamed for virtual attendees.

• Greater diversity in livestreamed workshops: We heard from virtual attendees that they would like more diversity in the workshops that are selected for livestreaming. The Virtual Conference Experience subcommittee intentionally selected the livestreamed workshops to reflect more diversity in the conference track, presenter affiliation, and MCH population domain.

• Engaging plenary sessions: Like last year, virtual attendees will have access to the three plenary sessions that will be livestreamed.

• Virtual networking to kick off your conference experience: Join us April 12, 11:00-11:45 AM PT for an opportunity to connect with virtual participants, network, and explore ways to enhance your AMCHP 2024 virtual conference experience!

• Post-conference access to conference materials: After the 2024 AMCHP Conference, you can continue to engage with conference materials and resources. All virtual-only workshops, livestreamed in-person workshops, and plenary sessions will be recorded, and you will be able to access those recordings on the conference platform for six months after the conference. All poster presentations will also be accessible on the conference platform. Finally, all in-person workshop presenters are being actively encouraged to upload a practice recording of their sessions as well as session materials and resources before conference so that more attendees can access these during and after the conference.

• More flexibility with how you attend sessions:This year, you can join sessions from a laptop/desktop or via the conference app. You will always need to be logged in to stream sessions. More information on this will be shared in the lead-up to conference and via other virtual attendee resources.

• Digital accessibility: There will be live captioning of the three plenary sessions and automatic captioning of live streamed workshops and virtual-only workshops. If you have any accessibility accommodations, please email the AMCHP Registration team at amchpreg@conferencemanagers.com and we will do our best to accommodate these.

• Investment letter: We know how challenging it can be to feel like you cannot fully attend a virtual conference without needing to respond to emails or continue to work on your job. The Virtual Conference Experience subcommittee is creating an investment letter that you can share with your supervisor that reiterates the importance of your attending the virtual 2024 AMCHP Conference and that you be treated as if you were attending it in-person.  To download a copy, click HERE.
