4 Conferences in One!

This year, CFX isn’t just one large conference with multiple learning tracks. It’s four separate conferences, with pricing enabling you to go to one conference, a conference and related masterclasses, or multiple conferences, depending on your budget and areas of interest. We’ll be taking a look at each of these conferences in detail in the coming weeks. We’ll also be looking at special sessions and events unique to each conference. The conferences are:

Tech Arts Conference

The Tech Arts Conference is your chance to learn from the best, develop new skills, find your community, and grow! There are currently 20 speakers and a keynote speaker slated, with more sessions and speakers being added!

Facility Stewardship Conference

Learn new techniques and systems for managing your church facility and grounds. There are currently 15 speakers, a keynote speaker, and a general session speaker, plus more speakers and sessions being added in the weeks to come for this vital resource for the house of worship community.

There are currently 24 speakers, a keynote speaker, and a general speakers appearing at this conference, with more speakers and sessions to come!

Church Safety Conference

With attacks on houses of worship taking place on church grounds, at events, and even in cyberspace, churches are becoming more and more aware of the need for proper planning and management to keep their congregations, buildings, and schools safe and secure. There are currently 17 speakers, a keynote speaker, and a general session speaker slated for this unique, important conference, with more to come.

The Expo

The Expo area is always a popular feature of CFX, and this year, any one attending any of the conferences will have free access to the expo and all the special events taking place there such as the ever-popular loudspeaker demo, special sessions, networking sessions, and hands-on training. We’ll be looking at those special events more in the weeks to come, as well as a look at some of the expo’s more than 160 exhibitors.

We look forward to seeing you and other members of the Worship Facility community in Chattanooga, and we’re excited to tell you more about all you can experience at CFX 2024 each week!
