FAQs
When does registration open? How can I book a hotel room? You may have questions, and we have answers.
When does conference registration open?
Conference registration opens Spring 2025. Check back on our website for further updates.
How do I register for the conference?
Simple! Click on any button that says "register" and you will be redirecting to our AMS, where you can input your information and pay for your conference pass. If you don't have an account in our AMS system yet it will take only a minute to set up. Simply click "Log In" at the top of this site.
Can I buy a pass for just one day?
Unfortunately, no, we only provide passes for the duration of the entire conference, whether that's a full or networking pass.
Can I just walk in and register?
Yes, you can! In fact, online registration closes a few days before the conference starts. But we accept registrations on-site up to even the last day of the conference.
Is the VCIA Conference just for Vermont captives?
Absolutely not! The VCIA Conference is an inclusive event where everyone, no matter what domicile or role they play in the industry, is welcome. In fact, at VCIA several other domiciles exhibit and many regulators attend the conference. VCIA is also well known for bringing in up to 200+ new attendees each year who might be just entering the captive space.
How do I book a VCIA hotel block room?
Upon registering and paying for your conference pass, you will receive a non-transferable code to book a room in our hotel block. If you need to book multiple rooms, please contact VCIA staff.
Can I do a group registration? Are there group discounts?
Yes, you can do a group registration, but no, there are no group discounts.
Do networking passes get into educational sessions?
No, networking passes are only permitted in the exhibit hall, the receptions, and at meals. VCIA staff and security monitor attendance at the educational sessions, and should you want to go to a session, you need to purchase upward to a full conference pass.
What if I want my company to sponsor or exhibit?
That's great! Contact VCIA's Director of Sponsorship and Exhibitors Angie Armour. It's also worth becoming a VCIA member at this point to save a bundle on conference expenses.
I'm a little overwhelmed at attending my first VCIA Conference. Any advice?
You're not alone! We get hundreds of new attendees each year and we make it a point to welcome them with open arms. Plan to attend the Newcomers' Orientation and connect with a conference ambassador. Reach out to to VCIA staff and we can personally get you adjusted - and excited - for your conference experience.
