The South Carolina Captive Insurance Association (SCCIA)’s 19th Annual Executive Educational Conference has been successfully rescheduled to 11 and 13 of December while retaining its original schedule.
Originally scheduled between 11 and 13 September, the SCCIA 2018 conference had to be postponed due to Hurricane Florence.
As before, the conference will begin with the golf tournament and captive academy session on Tuesday, with further sessions following on Wednesday and Thursday.
According to Bryan Hudson, SCCIA president, only one speaker has had to be replaced so far and, while that process is still ongoing, he was confident that most, if not all, of the conference speakers, would be retained for the new date.
The conference has now been postponed due to extreme weather for the second consecutive year but Hudson said the 2019 event would still be scheduled for September next year.
He explained: “We have not made the decision to permanently move anything at this point. Next year it will be around the same time.”
“We will revisit that next year, but if you look at the conference schedule timing September works pretty nicely for us and in the near term we don’t plan on moving that at this time.”
Hudson stated the SCCIA were excited to announce that the conference had been successfully rescheduled and that on a personal level he was most excited for the networking opportunities.
He said: “We have a great group of attendees that attend our conference annually, along with a fair amount of newcomers, so, I’m looking forward to the networking opportunities.”
“The programme has also got a lot of intriguing, timely content, so I am certainly looking forward to hearing the speakers and presentations.”
He added: “Additionally, I look forward to Charleston’s cooler weather in December—and just in time for some last minute holiday shopping on King Street and the surrounding area.”
