Arrivals + Happy Hour/Dinner: Wednesday, October 7 (evening)
Conference Program: Thursday, October 8 (morning–3:00 PM)

TXPPC’s Annual Conference is designed as a focused space for plan sponsors and benefits professionals to learn, compare notes, and walk away with ideas that are actually usable. Programming centers on timely issues in public plan administration and employee benefits strategy—paired with structured discussion so attendees can share what’s working in their organizations.
Attendees arrive in Austin and check in at the hotel. That evening, TXPPC will host a networking happy hour & welcome dinner, an easy way to reconnect with peers and kick off the conference.
The conference program is one day, from 8:0 AM to 3:00 PM. Its one impactful day of education, and learning, with continuing education credits as an extra perk.
