NSCA’s early-bird discount rate for all 2016 Business & Leadership Conference (BLC) registrations is set to expire after Jan. 4, 2016. On Jan. 5, 2016, registration fees for members and non-members will increase by $400.

NSCA’s BLC has become the industry’s most notable platform for executive-level education and networking. The event has grown over the past 18 years to bring more than 300 executives together annually to share stories, learn from other leaders, and hear about new ways to embrace technology and motivate employees. The Business & Leadership Conference will be held on Feb. 25-27, 2016, at Four Seasons Resort & Club in Dallas, TX.

First-time BLC attendees who are also NSCA members may apply for a Randy Vaughan Founder’s Award to receive free registration. To qualify, applicants must be in a management or decision-making role. Applications are available here.
