Build a personalized schedule for CALIcon15

The 25th annual CALI Conference for Law School Computing, June 18 – 20, 2015 at University of Denver Sturm College of Law is right around the corner. We’ve put together an interesting and diverse schedule that will show off some of the best work being done in the law school information and educational tech spaces. With over 70 presenters giving over 50 sessions and nearly 300 attendees  representing over 90 law schools CALIcon is the best place to learn what’s going on with technology in legal education today.

With so much going on it can be a challenge to decide which sessions to attend. CALIcon15’s web-based schedules give you the option of building personalized schedules so that you can get to the sessions you want to see.

Using “My schedule” on the CALIcon15 website

The fastest way to build a personalized schedule is to log in to the conference website and visit the schedule page at http://conference.cali.org/2015/program/session-schedule. This is the official schedule grid for CALIcon15. As you scroll down the grid you’ll notice “Add to my schedule” links at the bottom of each entry. Clicking on that link will add the session or schedule item to your personalized schedule. You can view your custom schedule by clicking on the “My schedule” tab. That’s all there is to it, just a few clicks and you have a custom CALIcon15 schedule.

Use calicon15.cali.org for more features and options

If you’re looking for more features in a personalized CALIcon15 schedule like calendar integration, email alerts, or mobile display then you can use the new interactive schedule we’ve added this year. You can find the interactive schedule on the conference home page, http://conference.cali.org/2015, or at http://calicon15.cali.org/. We are embedding the interactive on numerous CALI websites so you will see the interactive schedule in a lot of places. It’s the same schedule everywhere.

To use the features of the interactive schedule you will need to create an account on sched.org. Please note that we are not automatically creating accounts on sched.org for CALIcon15 attendees, we are leaving that up to folks who decide to take advantage of the features offered on the interactive schedule. Once you’ve created an account and logged in you can scroll through the schedule and check the session and schedule items you want to attend and your personalized scheduled will be built for you. Selecting “My Sched” from the dropdown under your avatar will provide you with access to all of the options available.

No matter which version you use, building a personalized schedule for CALIcon15 will help you navigate the conference and make sure you don’t miss sessions you’re interested in.
