Planning Ahead for Live Conferences: C5’s All Secure Safety Plan We look forward to the time when we are able to welcome you back to our live conferences.
When you are ready to attend one of our conferences, you will see that a lot has changed. Social distancing and cleaning procedures that have now become a way of life for all of us are now the standard for how we will run our conferences. Our events will continue to offer unparalleled access to market leading intelligence and to the facilitation of a global exchange of expertise and now with a greater focus on the safety, health and well-being of all our guests. As American Conference Institute and our partners begin to look forward to live events, we are committed to building and enhancing the planning and preparation with a view to offering our guests a safe place for live conference delivery. In addition, to ensure your safety, our event staff is fully vaccinated. All our events will adhere to official government and local authority guidance in addition to venue or location-specific regulations. Our live events will follow the commitments below.
In-person Conference Participation Requirements For the protection and wellbeing of all event attendees, we have implemented a vaccination requirement for entry into the conference. All attendees and staff are required to provide proof of being fully vaccinated with a COVID-19 vaccine. A negative COVID-19 test result will not qualify for entry into the conference.

Link to COVID-19 symptoms: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/symptoms-testing/symptoms.html We are closely monitoring industry best practices and will be evaluating further additional measures pertaining to vaccinations and on-site screening based on the advice of health authorities.
In addition, as per the guidance of the CDC, we encourage all attendees to wear a mask or face covering at all times while at the conference and its social functions, except in limited settings such as during meals. We reserve the right to deny entry to anyone not following the requirements above. Please note our entry policy is subject to change at any time based on changing local regulations.
