As a result, all registered attendees and panelists, as well as anyone who later registers for the Summit, will be asked at check-in to provide proof of full COVID vaccination or a negative COVID test [taken within 3 days of their arrival at the meeting].

This year’s AJEI Summit will take place from Thursday, November 11 through Sunday, November 14.
