The first Europe North judge conference of 2019 will include presentations and workshops on various judging-related topics. The conference is targeted at judges from the Europe – North region, although judges from all regions are welcome to apply (but must be approved by their own RC). The working language of this conference will be English.
This time we’re going to Stockholm, Sweden- at Exploria Nöjescenter that is located at Fittjavägen 22 in Norsborg! This venue is filled with various activities which we can indulge ourselves with after the conference! (Activity fees not included.)
All participants must register by March 10th, which you can conveniently do through the JudgeApps Conference event.
