How do I access the sessions?

To access forum sessions, click on “My Schedule”, the day you wish to participate in at the top, and then the session you plan to attend. Once inside the session – click the “Begin Session Here” button.

If you would like to attend a session other that the one you originally selected, visit the "All Sessions" tab.

When should I log in to attend the session?

We recommend you log into the portal at least five minutes prior to the session to ensure you have enough time to receive a verification code (if needed) and navigate to your session.

Do I have to log in every time I visit the event?

If you do not close your browser windows or log out of the forum, you will not need to log in again. Otherwise, you will need to log in again.

What is the schedule?

Please visit our Agenda page.

What is the time zone?

All published times are in U.S. Central Time.

Which technologies are you using?

CVENT CrowdCompass is our forum portal.

What device should I use?

Some employers prevent access to external conference platforms from corporate VPN accounts. You may find it easiest to use a personal device to access this event.

Do I have to attend every session to maintain access?

No. You may come and go as you please from forum sessions, and there is no requirement to participate in each of the event days in order to maintain access.

Can other people see me, and if so – what is the dress code?

FOX encourages attendees to turn their cameras on during sessions. There will be some instances when attendees will be visible to one another. Business casual attire is recommended.

How can I change my visibility setting from hidden to visible or vice versa?

Navigate to “edit your profile,” where you can change your visibility.
