There\u2019s no dress code. Most attendees tend to dress business casual, and jeans are common. Have a light sweater or blazer on hand for a cooler event space, and for outdoor receptions on the pool deck, where it tends to get breezy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Comfortable shoes are a must for getting between sessions and events as well as exploring Los Angeles. Don\u2019t forget masks to last you the week and proof of COVID-19 vaccination, which are required (make sure you note all the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/journalists-org-develop.go-vip.co\/ona22\/faq\/#1648654048660-8ffe33ac-5321\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">health and safety requirements and procedures<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ahead of time). Also consider packing business cards, a notebook and pen for jotting down notes and a refillable water bottle for hydrating in sunny L.A.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve noticed people tend to dress up a bit more at the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/journalists-org-develop.go-vip.co\/ona22\/sessions\/online-journalism-awards\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Online Journalism Awards Ceremony<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Sept. 24, 7\u20139 p.m. PDT). For this evening all about celebrating journalism excellence, you may want to pack attire that\u2019s somewhere between business and informal wear \u2014\u00a0it\u2019s a notch above business casual, but there\u2019s no requirement to be in a dark suit or semi-formal dresses. You can expect to see some sports jackets and ties, nice slacks, little black dresses, fun cocktail dresses and the like. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/journalists-org-develop.go-vip.co\/awards\/2019\/10\/10\/celebrating-the-2019-oja-winners\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check out a photo gallery<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from our 2019 celebration to get a feel for the event.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Building your schedule<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With about 80 sessions and workshops to choose from, just figuring out where to be can be overwhelming. Our best tip? Pick a few top sessions that are absolute must-sees, and construct your ideal day-to-day around them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve identified your top sessions, consider picking a couple that have nothing to do with your specialty. Attendees often say those sessions are the ones that end up sticking with them the longest, or changing the way they thought about another problem in their work. Consider joining a session that covers something you\u2019ve always been interested in, but don\u2019t know a lot about. Let serendipity guide you!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few more tips on scheduling:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take note if an event requires an RSVP (they\u2019ll be denoted on the schedule) and reserve your spot early if you\u2019re planning to attend.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can\u2019t decide between two concurrent sessions? You can make a post-conference learning plan and not feel like you need to attend everything in real time. Look for the screen and audio icons on the schedule \u2014 those denote sessions we plan to record by video and\/or audio and make available on-demand later.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where you can, leave flexibility for breaks and \u201challway conversations\u201d \u2014 the name longtime ONAers give to those deep-dive chats that happen between session rooms with a new or familiar face. These conversations can often lead to lasting inspiration, future colleagues or collaborators, so embrace the opportunity to nerd out when you have it!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Los Angeles, plan to arrive early to get a great seat and talk to your neighbors \u2014 your favorite topics are bound to attract others who are interested in the same issues, and they may be good people to follow up with after the conference. The same idea goes for you virtual attendees: Join the chat alongside the session livestream to meet others with similar interests and to hear new perspectives on the topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Networking<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Repeat conference attendees tell us what makes ONA so special, besides the stellar programming, is the opportunity to reconnect with new and old colleagues year after year. Typically an ONA conference includes about 50% first-timers and 50% returning attendees, so if it seems like everyone knows what they\u2019re doing, keep in mind that you\u2019re not alone as a newbie! The ONA tradition of handing out buttons for the number of conferences attended will help you identify other first-timers and people who have joined us before. If you see someone with a 10+ button, introduce yourself and ask them what keeps them coming back!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Closer to the conference, you will get access to our event platform where you can see who else is attending, find people with similar interests and message them one-on-one.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be present<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of us are juggling lots of priorities, at work and elsewhere. But as much as you can focus your attention on the conference, you\u2019ll thank yourself later. Whether you\u2019re sitting in person or joining virtually, resist the temptation to check email during that session you\u2019ve been looking forward to all year and your brain will retain the information better. You\u2019ve invested your time and energy in attending this event, and you\u2019ll get the most out of that investment if you focus on your time here.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t take our word for it\u2026<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Need to hear from a few ONA veterans about their best tips for first-timers?
