Conference Registration Is Open!
Registration Is Open! Together, We Make Magic Happen at IAACE 2026
The wait is over…registration for the IAACE 2026 Conference is officially open!
Join us September 30 – October 2, 2026, at Belterra Resort for three unforgettable days of learning, collaboration, celebration, and inspiration. This year’s theme, “Together, We Make Magic Happen,” reminds us that the real magic of IAACE isn’t found in a stage, a keynote, or a breakout room. It’s created when educators, administrators, support staff, partners, and advocates come together to share ideas, encourage one another, and strengthen adult education across Indiana.
Whether you’re a first-time attendee or a longtime IAACE member, you’ll find opportunities to discover new strategies, connect with colleagues, and leave energized with ideas you can immediately put into practice.
What Awaits You
Your conference experience includes:
- Inspiring keynote presentation by Lewis Chaney
- Engaging breakout sessions led by educators and leaders from across Indiana
- Meaningful networking opportunities
- An interactive Exhibit Hall

- The Thursday evening Poolside Social featuring appetizers, music, and karaoke
- The Friday Featured Brunch, combining great food with an engaging learning experience
- Fun conference traditions, including a Heads & Tails game, door prizes, and the closing of the Silent Auction
Every session, conversation, and shared experience is designed to help you grow professionally while celebrating the incredible work happening in adult education every day.
