Download the Conference App

  • Download the app and Search for an Event using NHPC.
  • All users must create a new login. (Note: This is not linked to your conference registration or login from a previous year).
  • The conference app is connected to the agenda website, so you'll use the same login for both. If you’ve already created an account on the agenda site, use those same credentials to access the app.
  • You don’t need to star a session to attend—all sessions are open to everyone—but favoriting helps us plan for seating and room sizes. Favoriting a session does not reserve your spot, and registration is not required to attend the sessions. Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • If you downloaded the app in the past, please delete it and download the latest version to access all current features and updates.

 

Look for "My Experience" on the Agenda Site & App

New this year, the My Experience on the agenda site and the Your Schedule button in the app allow you to add personal meetings to your schedule.
