Frequently Asked Questions
TravCon is the largest conference that is dedicated to the traveling healthcare professionals, providing the opportunity to network with other travelers and top industry insiders with whom you wouldn’t normally connect. Earn CEU’s for classes specific to the traveling healthcare industry and clinical practice, find new friends in your field, and network with staffing agencies in a relaxed, low-pressure setting.
Many sessions share strategies, tips and suggestions on how to approach the many challenges healthcare travelers face. The exhibit hall has over 130 exhibitors – many of them staffing agencies with open positions to fill. You’ll come away from this conference with a whole new set of skills on how to manage your traveling career!
The Cornerstones of TravCon are:
1) Professional: This event is a unique opportunity where travelers and recruiters can meet face
to face. No where else can companies and travelers come together in a fun, relaxed environment and connect with each other one-on-one. Short personal conversations in the exhibit hall or over dinner can lead to trusting long term relationships.
2) Educational: Tailored live CE sessions that develop traveling as a skill, while focusing on areas of specialization for the medical professional run through the course of the event. Sessions are presented by industry and/or clinical experts, offering learners the opportunity to interact directly with the instructors through Q&A. Pre-requisites are not required for the sessions, and most are applicable to all types of healthcare professionals.
3) Social: Travelers work and live around the country and rarely have the chance to work together. We provide the perfect venue for you to enjoy a variety of fun & social opportunities to find new friends with the same traveling mindset. For many travelers, this conference is a family reunion.

Yes. Breakfast and lunch are provided in the exhibit hall both main conference days (Monday & Tuesday). There are also receptions and the famous AfterParty which is included in all ticket options.
We recommend you book your room at the Paris Hotel where the conference is held so you are as close as possible. Horseshoe Hotel is also close by through an inter-connecting hallway. We have discounted rooms at both hotels through our website link on our Hotel & Travel page. There is no fee to book online, but the hotel charges a fee to book by phone.
When our room block sells out (which it always does), check directly with the hotel on their website for their best rates. Note that the resort fees are higher when booked directly (they are discounted in the room block).
