Announcing the 2024 URTA Designer and Technician Showcase at LDI URTA will once again be partnering with LDI to present the URTA Designer and Technician Showcase at LDI. The Showcase will take place at the LDI show in Las Vegas on Sunday, December 8, 2024 from 10am - 5pm in the Association Lounge in the Expo Hall. The one-day event provides designers and technicians the opportunity to present their work and network with potential graduate school recruiters and employers. There is no additional fee to take part in the URTA Designer & Technician Showcase, however participants must be registered to attend the LDI show. Showcase space is limited and participants are strongly encouraged to pre-register at urta.com/LDI to reserve their place by Nov. 15, 2024. Walk-ins will be accepted on site as space allows. All pre-registered participants for the URTA Showcase will receive a FREE LDI Expo Hall pass. The URTA Showcase will be particularly valuable for current students (both undergrad and grad), recent graduates, and early-career designers and technicians. The showcase compliments other LDI programming, including the Career Day (Saturday) and the Portfolio & Website Review (Saturday) where designers can receive professional feedback on their portfolios ahead of the URTA Showcase. An LDI Expo Hall Pass is all that is required to access the URTA Showcase, and all pre-registered showcase participants will receive a discount code to redeem for a free expo hall pass, the company says. For those that wish to purchase a pass for full conference programming, LDI provides deeply discounted registration for young career professionals (visit ldishow.com for more details).
