Effective November 4, 2022, NSPE expects attendees to take responsibility themselves for following guidance from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) on measures to reduce infection from COVID-19 and to protect against severe complications. NSPE urges all members to follow the CDC’s recommendation and be respectful of other people’s choice to meet or exceed the minimum guidelines.

 

For more information, please review the guidelines at: How to Protect Yourself and Others | CDC

NSPE cannot be held liable for COVID-19 cases arising because of event attendance and will continue to require all attendees to sign a COVID-19 Safety Acknowledgement and Liability Waiver upon registering for any NSPE in-person meeting or event.

 

This commitment is subject to change based on COVID-19 community levels and any updated guidance from CDC and/or federal or state officials in localities hosting an NSPE in-person meeting or event. Guidance on COVID-19 is continually updated, and NSPE appreciates the understanding of its stakeholders as we seek to provide valuable, timely face-to-face programming while prioritizing the health and safety of attendees.

 

If an event venue requires additional restrictions or limitations, all in-person participants will be expected to meet those requirements. 

This commitment will be modified if necessary to comply with the mandates of any state laws for meetings held in those states.
