Annual Conference

EDCO has held an annual conference since its start-up in 1957. Each year, members and other engaged in profession gather to exchange information and learn from leading edge presentations that are transferable to their respective communities. Part of the event includes a showcase that offers participants to learn about new programming and services that will assist in day-to-day operations and funding of special projects.

The 68th Annual Conference and Showcase is taking place on February 4-6, 2025.
