Welcome to the opening of registration for the 2023 ÐÜèÊÓÆµAnnual Meeting!
Each year, the ÐÜèÊÓÆµ Annual Meeting is the world's largest gathering of education researchers and a showcase for groundbreaking, innovative studies in an array of areas. The conference will be dual-component, with the place-based component to be held in Chicago, April 13–16, and the virtual component to be held on an online platform on May 4–5.
Regardless of how registrants attend, the 2023 Annual Meeting will be a can’t-miss event for intellectual engagement, reconnecting with colleagues and building new professional networks with other attendees. The meeting program will be released on January 20. Registration is required to attend the place-based or virtual components of the ÐÜèÊÓÆµAnnual Meeting.
Register now and join thousands of scholars from education research and aligned fields and disciplines at the 2023 meeting and select from more than 2,000 substantive sessions featuring high-quality and timely education research.
ÐÜèÊÓÆµoffers different registration rates for place-based and virtual-only attendees. Those registering for the place-based meeting in Chicago can take advantage of an early bird discount through March 10.
Attendees for the place-based meeting in Chicago will automatically be registered for and able to access and attend the virtual meeting and other virtual components of the place-based meeting at no extra charge.
Those registered only for the virtual meeting will have access to the two-day virtual meeting on May 4-5 and also be able to view a selected number of place-based Chicago sessions via web-streaming, including the opening plenary, the Presidential address, major lectures, and a number of Presidential sessions and AERA-wide special sessions. Virtual meeting attendees will also have access to the recordings of these select sessions, as well as recordings of all virtual sessions in the online platform’s video library.
For the 2023 Annual Meeting, the registration process, which is fully integrated with the membership join/renew process, will take place entirely through My AERA, the entry point for AERA’s association management system on the ÐÜèÊÓÆµwebsite.

Proof of Vaccination and Masking All attendees must have UP-TO-DATE VACCINATION and at least one booster to attend in person. Mask wearing is strongly encouraged, but not required, in common areas. We expect attendees will be unmasked while eating or drinking. Mutual respect and health and safety remain priority goals.
