Early Bird Deadline Approaches for ASSP’s Safety 2021

With interest and optimism building for its Safety 2021 Professional Development Conference and Exposition, the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) reminds potential attendees the “super early rate” ends Friday, June 25.

Now is the time to secure the lowest rate for the dynamic learning and networking event held Sept. 13-15 in Austin, Texas. The hybrid experience will feature online and in-person components to give occupational safety and health professionals easy access to continuing education.

ASSP members protect workers around the globe and look to Safety 2021 to expand their professional development and find solutions to workplace safety issues. ASSP will reportedly enhance the in-person event at the Austin Convention Center with an engaging virtual component that features mobile compatibility for unprecedented access. While parts of the 60th annual conference will be livestreamed from Austin, the education and networking opportunities will be tailored to the needs of in-person and online attendees.

ASSP continues to assess public health guidance and will update attendees on all safety and health protocols as the event draws closer. At this time, on-site safeguards include contactless registration, physical distancing, designated entrances and exits, one-direction aisles, seating limits in meeting rooms and frequent cleaning of common areas. All in-person attendees will be required to provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test within 48 hours of the event.

The conference’s popular general and plenary sessions that aim to inspire, entertain and inform will be livestreamed so that in-person and online attendees experience them together in real time.

Safety professionals attending in Austin can earn 1.2 continuing education units (CEUs) for career advancement. All registrations include 60-day on-demand access to sessions recorded for the online event that provide an additional 6.0 CEUs, enabling attendees to earn up to 7.2 total. Online-only registrants can earn up to 6.4 CEUs.
