Greater Fort Wayne Area, Indiana
We are excited to invite you to Fort Wayne, Indiana for the 2026 NAI Great Lakes Regional Intepreters' Workshop!
However, we recognize that there is a lot of economic uncertainty right now for many in our profession. As a result, some of you may be considering whether or not attending a conference in 2026 will be financially feasible. At the same time, conference costs have risen significantly over the past few years, particularly for food (over 80% of the cost). This makes it difficult to offer a low-cost conference in our traditional format. As a result, we are considering a range of conference options for 2026. We want your feedback! We are considering 5 possible formats for the 2026 NAI Regional Interpreters' Workshop in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Please let us know about your past history attending Great Lakes Region conferences - and then rate each of the conference format options based on your likeliness to attend. |
