Continuing Education & Professional Development Conference Software

Sched App Mockup

For many industries, learning and education never stop. From K-12 schools, university programs, and professionals that need access to the latest technology and research continuing education and professional development conferences are vital.

Organizing these events can feel like a full-time job, but few planners have the luxury of specializing in planning these meetings, conferences, and seminars. Software for continuing education seminar planning should be easy to use and include everything your speakers, attendees, and planners need while not over-charging. Ideally, they offer non-profit discounts.
