Registration Information for the 2026 Conference

The 2026 FEEFHS Conference registration is now open! This in-person only conference will take place in Salt Lake City from Wednesday, August 5 to Friday, August 7, with an optional day of workshops on Tuesday, August 4.

Hour-long classes run from 8:30am to 5:00pm with a 90-minute break for lunch. Featuring classes in several regional/topic tracks, the schedule will offer 3 class choices for each of 6 class time slots per day, i.e., 18 classes to choose from each day!

Conference Dining

We hope you’ll join us for Tuesday night’s Welcome Reception where there will be a buffet of finger foods…and also for the Closing Banquet on Friday night. But in the meantime, downtown Salt Lake City has a wide variety of dining venues. Many restaurants are within walking distance of the Crystal Inn (the conference hotel) and the Salt Palace Convention Center, where classes will be held.
