CORONAVIRUS UPDATE #1 March 3, 2020

The safety and well being of our community is a top priority for Education Elements. And, given the recent developments around the world, we are closely monitoring and consulting the guidance of the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the US State Department, World Health Organization, and others.


The Education Elements Summit is proceeding for May 13-15 2020.


We encourage you to become familiar with the guidance for people in the US -- which includes guidance on washing hands regularly and for at least 20 seconds, and avoiding touching your nose and face with unwashed hands, and staying home if sick.


We will have hand sanitizing stations located near all restrooms and meeting space and strongly encourage all colleagues and guests to wash their hands throughout the day.


We are thrilled to be hosting this event which will be an amazing learning, networking, and fun experience. We look forward to seeing everyone in Austin!!
