The Conference system offers first-time attendees the opportunity to be matched with a Buddy who is an experienced SCT Conference attendee.
It is the role of a Buddy to support a first-time attendee having a good experience at the Pre-Conference Weekend Institute and/or the Five-day Conference in Philadelphia.
Most attendees, new or experienced, like to connect with others during the Conference, review the program, exchange experiences or enjoy a drink or meal together. A Buddy can support making these connections.
First-time attendees can connect with and rely on their Buddy as much or as little as they both decide.
Those who have attended the Conference before are invited to be a Buddy to assist first-time attendees in getting the most out of the Conference by offering them the benefit of your experience.
Buddies and first-time attendees will be matched on criteria, such as profession, language, area of interest. Prior to the Conference they will receive more details.
