Event Description< /p>\n
UPCEA and UW-Madison are partnering to host the 2023 Dis tance Teaching and Learning (DT&\;L) Conference. UPCEA is co-locating t he Summit for Online Leadership and Administration + Roundtable (SOLA+R) w ith DT&\;L to create a comprehensive\, holistic\, and unique opportunit y for the online community to learn and network together\, in one location &mdash\;Madison\, WI. \; (Registration for the Online Leadership R oundtable will be separate.)
\nThis comprehensive exp erience brings together all the elements of the online enterprise in a hol istic way&mdash\;from teaching and learning to leadership and administrati on&mdash\;preserving the salient issues for these two distinct professiona l communities\, while catalyzing dialogue across all facets of the larger field.
\nSince 1985\, UW-Madison&rsquo\;s DT&\;L Confer ence has provided a transformative professional development experience for individuals working in the field of distance\, hybrid and online educatio n &ndash\; from faculty and instructors to instructional designers and adm inistrators. This event perfectly complements UPCEA&rsquo\;s more than 100 years of advocating for the Wisconsin Idea\, namely\, that the benefits o f the university should extend beyond the walls of campus to the communiti es they serve. A century later\, the powerful vision that fueled the exten sion movement has found its purest form in online and professional continu ing education. And that is what drives UPCEA today.
\nOver the past decade\, UPCEA&rsquo\;s Summit for Online Leadership and Adminis tration + Roundtable\, or SOLA+R\, has grown into the leading event and pr ofessional home for chief online learning officers and their staff. DT& \;L&rsquo\;s focus on online teaching and learning was the ideal complemen t for SOLA+R. Co-locating both events will expand the community of profess ionals in the field\, creating an even more valuable conference experience for all. The program will focus on addressing the rapidly changing online learning landscape with the most current topics\, technologies\, and inno vations that inform best practices\, strategies\, and online leadership.\n
Those of you who have attended past DT&\;L and SOLA+R conference
s already know these events provide the opportunity to discover relevant r
esearch\, innovative tools\, and cutting-edge thinking and perspectives. A
nd\, of course\, there&rsquo\;s the chance to network and brainstorm with
colleagues who share your focus\, passion\, and challenges for creating hi
gh-quality online and distance education

Affiliated Ev
ents Policy
\nThe association has gone to great lengths and expense to negoti
ate and contract for a reduced room rate at conference hotels. \;That
rate is based upon the projected attendance at the meeting. \;If corpo
rate member and nonmember attendees elect to stay at other hotels\, it sub
jects the association to attrition penalties that can cause significant fi
nancial loss to the association. \;We count on our corporate community
to support the association\, and one of the ways to do that is to honor o
ur efforts to secure a sufficiently large room block at a reduced rate at
a first class hotel/conference venue. \; \;
\n
For these reasons\, corporate member and nonmember attendees are prohibited from holding any meetings (briefings\, seminars\, etc.) within a 25-mile radius\, targeting professional\, continuing\, and online leaders in higher education during the scheduled hours of UPCEA events unless otherwise negotiated and sched uled with and by UPCEA. Any such meeting occurring within 36 hours before or after the UPCEA conference must be coordinated with UPCEA and\, space p ermitting\, be held at the conference hotel. \; This policy helps ensu re that the association&rsquo\;s contracted obligations to the hotel for g uest rooms and food and beverage minimums are met\, which is essential for the financial health of the association and its members. If UPCEA cannot find space for the corporate member or nonmember attendee&rsquo\;s event a t the contracted hotel\, we will work to help find alternative space. \; In no circumstances\, however\, is it permissible for a corporate membe r or nonmember attendee to contract a separate hotel block\, either at the conference hotel or elsewhere. \;
\n\n
UPCEA reserves the right to prohi bit corporate member and nonmember attendees who violate this policy from exhibiting or participating at UPCEA events.
