Details for the 2025 Onsite Mega-Conference are in development by NOWRA and our partners. 

Join us as early as Saturday, October 17 to take part in a fundraising event that will support NOWRA’s Emerging Professionals Scholarship Fund. The conference will open with detailed updates on EPA activities, NOWRA's current research initiatives, NOWRA's lobbying activities before Congress, and perspectives from industry thought leaders. The conference will feature multiple tracks of technical sessions with potential to earn continuing education credits, a busy exhibitor’s hall, an oral and poster presentation contest for emerging professionals, a Monday evening social event, and a full-day field trip on Wednesday.

The conference planning committee is in the midst of reviewing presentation abstracts and setting the agenda. Registration for attendees and exhibitors will open in later June or early July.
