The 2021 PFAC Conference Committee invites you to submit a presentation proposal for the 26th Annual PFAC Educational Conference taking place May 5-8, 2021 at the Hotel Del Coronado in Coronado, CA. The 2021 conference will build on a reputation of educational excellence for professional fiduciaries and industry experts. Educate your peers and colleagues as well as those new to the profession by submitting a proposal for consideration. With the uncertainty of returning to large in-person gatherings in 2021, PFAC is planning a hybrid conference allowing for in-person and virtual options.
