Oli & Roger explain what’s going on…

At last all the pieces for SMACC Chicago have fallen into place and we can release the much-anticipated program, speaker list, CE information and registration document.

PROGRAM | WORKSHOPS | SPEAKERS | BROCHURE | MORE

To help you prepare for the opening of registration here are some top tips to get you started.

1: First 500

For all residents / registrars / paramedics / nurses / pharmacists / PA (Basically anyone not practicing as an ‘attending’ –‘’specialist’).

The lucky first 500 will be able to register at the discounted price of US$595.

This cost is fully inclusive of all events in the 3 day program, the welcome reception, Gala night and all coffee and lunch breaks.

Unlike other meetings there are no hidden extras and the cost is all-inclusive, as we want delegates to be fully immersed in the entire experience.

We’re trying as hard as possible to keep the price down for you; to avoid any transaction fee at all, you can pay by direct deposit in either USD, AUD or Euros, depending on where you’re coming from.

Pay local by direct transfer if you can to save cash!

To make it as fair as possible we have chosen to open registration at a time which we think offers all delegates from around the world a chance to get online at a reasonable hour – Check the launch time table below and set your alarms – Good Luck!

2: Workshops

We have organized a spectacular array of more than 30 pre-conference workshops, but the number of places in each workshop is limited so first in gets a ticket!

You’ll need to register for the conference and then register for the workshops you want to attend.

From Education to simulation and advanced haemodynamics to neuro-critical care, there is something for everyone.

Don’t forget many workshops sold-out in the first weeks after registration opened this year so the scramble for places will likely be even more hectic.

3: Conference Hotel – Sheraton Towers

Want to get the most out of the SMACC-Fest experience.

The Sheraton Towers will be the venue for most of the pre-conference workshops and there’ll be a shuttle between the Sheraton and McCormick place.

As part of the Festival experience activities will run from the Sheraton throughout the week.

Here is more about SMACC accommodation

 4: Delegate Log-in function:

Once you’ve registered for SMACC you’ll be invited to join the delegate log-in function on the website.

Here you can build a profile and include any interests you have from academic pursuits to sports or lifestyle.

This will allow you to make connections with other delegates sharing your interests to talk shop, go to a baseball game or maybe catch one of Chicago’s great stage productions – whatever your interests are there is something for everyone.

[az_acc_container animation_loading=”yes” animation_loading_effects=”move_left”][az_accordion_section] [accordion title=”Chicago is THE place to be right now” id=”acc-1″]SMACC is due a debut in the northern hemisphere.

Chicago has unparalleled sophistication, class, and style.

Not to mention, breathtaking views.

With the best bars, jazz clubs and restaurants, those in the know will tell you Chicago is the perfect destination for SMACC.

Chicago is more than just a big city. Besides its striking downtown, which includes some of the tallest buildings in the world, Chicago has a distinctive coastline, hundreds of vibrant parks and more than 200 unique neighbourhoods.

In Chicago you will find incredible shopping on The Magnificent Mile, a Michelin-rated dining scene and exciting nightlife. The city also flaunts more than 40 museums, five regional Tony Award-winning theatres and, no matter the season, a sports team to cheer to victory.

Chicago’s neighbourhoods represent more than 100 countries and it’s through this diversity and profound city culture that they’ve been able to develop the country’s best restaurants, theatres and museums.[/accordion] [accordion title=”Perfectly placed” id=”acc-2″]Whether you’re coming from USA, Europe or Australasia, Chicago is an attractive option.

With direct flights from 212 cities, we’ve tried to make it as easy for as many people as possible to make it…[/accordion] [accordion title=”Need any more reasons?” id=”acc-3″]You may feel you know Chicago through shows like E.R. and Chicago Hope.But there’s more!

Who could forget cult classics Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and The Breakfast Club?

And for fans of iconic architecture, Chicago is the home of Frank Lloyd Wright and the Chicago Seven[/accordion] [/az_accordion_section][/az_acc_container]
