Scholarships: MPC has worked to keep registration rates as low as possible in order to make the conference accessible to a wide range of organizations. However, if the cost of the conference is still a barrier, there are a limited number of partial scholarships available this year for first-time attendees from organizations with budgets of less than $100,000. Find out more about the scholarships and criteria here.
