The countdown is on for the upcoming Virtual FSA Training Conference to be held December 3-6, and you can do some prep work now.
Federal Student Aid (FSA) announced that the 2024 Virtual FSA Training Conference Event Platform is now available for registered participants to log in and build a schedule, view speaker bios, set up an electronic business card, and explore the Virtual Exhibit Hall. All registered participants will receive an email from mobilesolutions@chime.live that includes a link to the platform, their unique username, and a password.
Once the conference kicks off at 9 a.m. (ET) on December 3, session content will be available for viewing. All sessions will be pre-recorded, and some will include a live Q&A.
