2023 AALJ Education Conference
New Orleans Oct. 3-5, 2023
The Association of Administrative Law Judges (AALJ), representing more than 1,000 jurists who work for the U.S. Social Security Administration, will hold its 30th educational conference October 3-5 at the luxurious Hotel Monteleone, centrally located in the heart of New Orleans’ historic French Quarter.
Eight million people receive payments from the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program. These are individuals who have lost their ability to work due to an injury, accident, or health condition severe enough that the individual would be unable to work for at least one year. AALJ’s annual conference, which includes talks by leading experts in law and medicine, as well as briefings by the senior leadership of the Social Security Administration and other stakeholders, is a must for administrative law judges who hear claims related to Social Security disability.
Registration is presently full, but we have started a waitlist. AALJ members will be prioritized in terms of filling open slots. If we are able, we will then offer spots to other bargaining unit judges, and finally, to non-bargaining unit SSA judges. At this time, the conference is only open to current SSA ALJs.
Conference fees:
$395 (AALJ members)/$450 (non-members) – three days of educational content, three lunches, and two afternoon/evening receptions.
$445 (AALJ members)/$500 (non-members) – three days of educational content, three continental breakfasts, three lunches, and two afternoon/evening receptions.
Registration fees are 50% refundable from August 28, 2023, through September 17, 2023. Registration fees are non-refundable on or after September 18, 2023.
Hotel Accommodations:
A block of rooms has been reserved at the Hotel Monteleone at the conference rate of $199.00 per night (plus taxes and fees). The conference rate is available from Sunday, October 1 through Thursday, October 5. The room block expires on September 5, 2023, and there are very few rooms left.
