Schedule Improvement Opportunities for 2025.
As with other facets of the conference, FAHQ is committed to listening to the voice of our customers regarding our schedule and working to continuously improve your conference experience. Here are a few areas we are addressing:
Move to Midweek: Conference Planning Team (CPT) realizes this will be a big change for some of our attendees. In 2024 we had more attendees than 2023, which the hotel accommodated with larger space for our needs. Options for 2025 were limited for both early and late week conference schedule patterns to keep the conference in the early spring, a clear preference based on attendee feedback. We would have faced either tight quarters for speaker sessions or for our poster/exhibit/food service area. Another big deciding factor for CPT was that those attendees who stay at the conference hotel will be seeing a rate that is reduced by $20 per night from the 2024 rate
Panel Presentations: Attendee feedback consistently supported continuing panel presentations, with comments like: “panel discussions were a nice rhythm change from presentations of singular speakers” and “different presentations of same topic gave different perspectives and made it easy to see how different things could be applied to our location.” Suggestions for improvement included adding an active moderator from CPT to manage presenter time, leaving more time for questions at the end, and perhaps having some questions ready to get the Q&A started.
Ending early on Friday to ‘get ahead of traffic’: CPT identified Friday afternoon traffic in Orlando as a continuing attendee concern! With the new midweek schedule, Friday is avoided altogether, and we do plan to end earlier on our final day than in 2024.
We will continue to keep you updated as improvement needs are addressed. If you have other suggestions to improve our scheduling, contact the FAHQ Conference Team.
