Typically, the Institute attracts more than 1,000 participants from all 50 states and several other countries representing more than 400 colleges, universities, and organizations.

The Institute begins with a selection of optional workshops on Sunday, October 25, 2020, and opens officially on Monday, October 26, 2020, with a plenary session featuring experts in assessment. This will be followed by special track keynotes and concurrent sessions. The conference will end Wednesday, October 28, 2020.
