Join us for the 2021 annual PAPOR conference! Register Now

This event provides an opportunity for professional growth and networking in a collegial, friendly environment that also provides ample opportunity for good conversation and fruitful collaboration.

Though we’re virtual this year, we’re excited to showcase a number of ways to connect with your peers in polling and survey research.

What can you expect this year?

The 2021 conference will take somewhat of a different form now that we will be connecting virtually. The conference itself will be shorter and feature abbreviated panel sessions to allow for more personalized connections via breakout rooms and to keep screen time to a minimum.

CONFERENCE AGENDA

  • Short course: Included in the cost of registration is this year’s short course, “Cognitive Interviewing for better Questionnaire Design” with Dr. Ashley Grosse
  • Plenary panel: This year will feature a rich discussion on “Disinformation, Public Health, and Public Opinion” with researchers from RANDKaiser Family Foundation, and LMU’s StudyLA.
  • Development activities: We’ve enlisted help from The Comedy Partners to make for better presentation experiences. They will share techniques for reducing anxiety and getting centered before giving presentations and strategies for handling difficult questions in front of an audience, be it at PAPOR, AAPOR, dissertation defenses, at work, or in any situation. Come prepared to learn and practice these skills in a fun and friendly environment!
  • PAWPOR Happy Meow-r: We invite your furry friends to help close out the conference with us and woof love to exchange critter-themed cocktail recipes.
