IPAC Cancels In-Person Winter Conference, Moves to Online

0

The IPAC team and the IPAC Executive Committee recently made the difficult decision to switch the IPAC Winter Conference from our typical in-person training program to a virtual conference this year, due to the ongoing safety risks of COVID-19. It is simply not feasible to host several hundred people for hours at a time in a conference setting.  

Although we are disappointed to be unable to gather in person, we are excited to announce that we will be hosting a virtual Winter Conference in December, in conjunction with the Indiana Attorney General’s Office and the Association of Indiana Prosecuting Attorneys, Inc. Over the past few months, the IPAC team has been doing a tremendous job of hosting a weekly webinar series and we are confident that Winter Conference will satisfy the high quality standards that we have come to expect with our trainings. 

The agenda for this conference will feature top notch speakers from around the state and across the country who will educate on a variety of topics important to prosecutors.  

The webinars will be presented over several days, similar to our in-person conferences with three to four speakers scheduled for a given day. Prosecutors do not have to commit to the entire conference and can register for as many or as few webinars as they want during the conference. The rate for the webinars will be $50 per hour of Continuing Legal Education credit.  There will be a minimum of eight total hours of CLE credit offered, which will include two hours of Ethics CLE credit.  

As a result of the in-person conference being cancelled, IPAC will be pausing its annual awards ceremony for one year. 

IPAC will be releasing the agenda as we get closer to December. For those still looking for CLEs this year, here is the listing of remaining CLE opportunities that will be offered through IPAC prior to Winter Conference. These can all be found on our website’s training page: www.IPAC.in.gov/2332.htm
