Planning is underway for the 2026 Annual Meeting and Convention. As always, we want members to be part of it.
The Association is seeking proposals for continuing legal education seminars that will be a key part of the program at the convention, which is scheduled for May 13-15 at Borgata Casino Hotel & Spa in Atlantic City.
Here is a portal to submit ideas. The deadline to submit programs for consideration is Friday, Jan. 9.
Here are some important guidelines to keep in mind:
- All proposals will be reviewed by the Meeting Arrangements and Program Committee. Not every program will be accepted. The Association reserves the right to modify, combine or reject proposals to ensure all programs meet the educational objectives of the event and account for space constraints.
- Proposals must include a program topic or title, a brief description, a list of proposed speakers and the name of the section or committee if there is one is sponsoring the program. Every effort will be made to incorporate program ideas; however, there may be instances where speakers or related topics may be added to an existing panel, all with the aim of ensuring the most successful panels possible.
- The Association is committed to fostering diversity and inclusion and the MAP Committee will look for panels advancing this initiative. When a program is submitted, it is required to provide information about how the proposed program reflects this concept.
- The NJSBA Annual Meeting offers a unique opportunity to showcase NJSBA members on your panels. Association members are experts in their fields and are delighted to participate as speakers. Please be aware that speakers must be NJSBA members in good standing as of May 10 and register for the Annual Meeting. We will be checking membership and following up with any non-member speakers.
