Previously provided updates regarding ILPA event programming:
Update - December 1, 2021
ILPA is planning to resume in-person events beginning in February 2022. We are following industry trends and gathering guidance closely for our various event locations around the world and will have alternative virtual plans for the events in place if needed.
For our live programs, we will adhere to all health policies and safety protocols enforced by the Event venue and local state/city mandates, in addition to our own health and safety requirements, which may include sharing of vaccination status/negative test, social distancing protocols or signing a COVID waiver. ILPA will communicate any procedures to attendees prior to the Event start date.
Should you have questions about the requirements for upcoming events or educational programs or want to share your experiences at another industry event with our team, please contact [email protected].

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we navigate this uncertain current environment.

Update - March 11, 2020
With the rapidly developing situation around the global coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, and with the well-being of our community as a priority, ILPA has made the decision to postpone the ILPA Institute Level I in Chicago, March 24-25, the ILPA Legal Conference, April 14-15 in Washington, DC, and the ILPA LP-GP Industry Roundtable, April 29 - 30 in New York.
Over the past several weeks, we heard from several attendees about travel restrictions put in place by your organizations, and we are highly sensitive to the growing health and safety concerns related to large gatherings. We believe postponing the events will better allow us to ensure the best experience for all.
Attendees of these events will be contacted directly today. New dates for the ILPA Legal Conference and LP-GP Industry Roundtable will follow shortly, with the ILPA Institute Level I course being rescheduled to August 18-20, 2020.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that postponing these events may cause and appreciate your understanding and patience as we navigate an uncertain current environment.
ILPA will continue to actively monitor developments in the coming weeks, and will provide updates on other related ILPA events in due course.
