Frequently Asked QuestionsQ: Why did ICSC decide to transition the 58th annual conference to a virtual event?A: After thoughtful consultation with ICSC leaders, strategic partners and major stakeholders, ICSC’s Board of Directors made the decision to transition ICSC’s in-person conference into a reimagined virtual experience. This was deemed to be the best and safest course of action after careful consideration of evolving COVID-19 pandemic developments in the United States and around the world.
Q: What do you mean by a virtual event?A: ICSC is focused on an alternative solution to the 58th annual in-person conference that will provide an engaging, accessible, and inclusive platform to convene our global community, enabling us to connect, to learn, to share knowledge, and to advance the ministry of Catholic stewardship and Catholic philanthropy - a purpose that is more important today than ever before.
ICSC is working to develop an informative and engaging online experience, allowing participants to easily access important topics, research, and content that was originally developed for the onsite experience via their computers. The new virtual experience will also provide opportunities for participants to network, connect, and share knowledge, products, and solutions. Specifics regarding the new virtual experience continues to unfold.
Q: If I’m already registered, who do I contact to convert my registration to virtual?A. If you are already registered, your registration automatically converts to a virtual registration. If you have any questions, email our registrar at register@catholicstewardship.org
Q: What all is included in my registration fee?A. • Insightful speakers each day of the conference
• Thought-provoking presentations given in thirteen separate tracks
• Valuable how-to resources and ideas to take home and implement immediately
• Opportunities for prayer and reflection
• Networking with exhibitors
• Networking opportunities with peers
• A chance to be enriched both personally and professionally
• Opportunities to learn more about a wide variety of products and services from professional organizations in the ICSC virtual conference exhibit hall
Q: Can I send someone in my place if I can no longer attend?A. Yes, please be sure to contact us as soon as possible (must be before September 15, 2020) with your replacement’s name and contact information so they will have proper credentials and information once they arrive at the conference.
Q: How do we access the Virtual Conference? A. Prior to the conference all registrants will receive an email from ICSC’s email address: register@catholicstewardship.org. Included in this email will be log-in credentials that allows them access to the virtual conference online. The link can be accessed on your computer or you can download the Whova app on your smart phone. There is no charge to downloading the Whova app.

Q: Will the presentations be live or recorded?A. Many of the 2020 ICSC Virtual Conference presentations will be live. Some presentations will be pre-recorded.
Q: How do I speak to an exhibitor?A. There are several ways to speak to an exhibitor. There is a “chat” feature for each exhibitor within the virtual exhibit booth. Some exhibitors will hold live exhibit hours where you can speak with them “face-to-face” or you can schedule a “face-to-face” meeting.
