Western Austrlaian delegates can track their session attendance onsite at the Conference by scanning themselves in and out of each session they attend using the 'Check-In' area of the Conference app (not by using your phone's camera application). Further details can be found on this within the 'FAQs' section of the app on its launch next week.

The Conference app, sponsored by O'Sullivan Davies, will enable you to view the program, read the papers, create your own schedule, communicate with other delegates and participate in interactive sessions.

In the week prior to the Conference you will receive an email with the download instructions and your personalised code to allow you access to the app on your smart device, laptop or desktop. We encourage you to download the app before you arrive at the Conference, create your profile and start planning your participation.

As this is a paperless Conference, you may wish to download copies of the papers ahead of the Conference, as they become available. These can be viewed, emailed to yourself or printed through the link that will be included in the app launch email. You can also view the papers directly within the app.

The Conference dress code is business casual. Please refer to the social program page of the website for the dress code for individual functions.
