Please remember…
The Professional Learning Institute is about children, not for children. For safety reasons, we cannot allow children or strollers in the exhibit hall or in session areas. If you have children accompanying you to New Orleans, LA, we ask that you make alternative arrangements for child care. Check back soon for a list of accredited child care centers near the Hilton New Orleans Riverside which might offer drop-in services. We appreciate your understanding as we work hard to keep everyone safe.
