The FCIE executive committee is monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and evaluating its potential impact on the conference. At the moment, we are proceeding with our plans to have a face-to-face conference and plan to follow the COVID-19 protocols of our host institution. Santa Fe College strongly encourages vaccinations and masks during indoor meetings.
FCIE is committed to providing a safe and secure conference. We plan to use appropriate meeting spaces that will provide some degree of social distancing. We will make judicious decisions about food and beverage service and will invite guests to eat outdoors. Anyone who registers for the conference and is forced to cancel due to the COVID-19 pandemic will be able to receive a full refund if the request is made by Friday, September 24.
