Conference Mobile App

You can download the Whova app from the Apple and Android Stores. When you launch the Whova app, log in using the email you used to register for the conference, and when prompted in the Events section, click on “My Events” and you should see the NISOD logo next to “International Conference on Teaching and Leadership Excellence.”  Click on that event and it will take you to our conference app.
