COVID Safety Guidelines

Providing a safe environment for learning is a top priority at SAIS, as it is in your schools. We need your help to achieve this goal. We want to help keep you safe and healthy as we deliver this stellar lineup of speakers and sessions.

All participants:

• Will be fully vaccinated according to CDC guidelines or will submit a negative PCR test administered within 72 hours of arrival at the event in the event that they need a vaccination accommodation.
• Will wear a mask throughout the conference except while actively eating/drinking.

A few other details to know about conference logistics and protocols:

• Seating will be spaced for social distancing.
• There will be a minimum of 6’ in front of the podiums so speakers can be unmasked if they choose. 
• To-go boxes will be available for all group meals.
• Hand sanitizer and masks will be available. 

Thank you for your flexibility and understanding as we continue to navigate returning to the in-person events that are so important to the fabric of the SAIS community. If you have any questions, please email learn@sais.org.
