Send the League Your Ideas

The Iowa League of Cities is seeking proposals for educational workshops on topics of importance to city officials for our 2023 Annual Conference & Exhibit, September 20-22 in Cedar Rapids. Workshop proposals are due Monday, January 30, 2023.

If you or someone in your city, firm, agency or department is an expert on a topic of interest to city officials, please encourage them to submit a workshop proposal. Most hour-long workshop opportunities occur throughout the day on Thursday, September 21 and during the morning of Friday, September 22. At least one workshop will be scheduled for September 20; this tends to be an extended workshop covering leadership themes and is scheduled for three hours.

You may submit as many workshops ideas as you are qualified to present. Acceptance of your proposal is not a guarantee you will be selected to speak at the 2023 Annual Conference & Exhibit. All materials are subject to review by League staff. Workshop proposals will be evaluated based on how the topic addresses the needs of Iowa elected and appointed city officials. Initial selections for conference workshops will be made by the end of March 2023.
