While you may notice that the registration costs are higher this year than previous WACAC registration costs, please note that WACAC has proudly maintained affordable registration rates for conference attendees for over 10 years.

As a result of inflation and the rising cost of food and other expenses, WACAC Conference registration fees are higher for Sacramento 2024, in order to ensure all attendees have a quality conference experience consistent with WACAC standards.
