Click Away Conference

Is anyone familiar with the Click Away Conference, the next one is in Atlanta GA next March? I have a niece who is a photographer, and I just saw on her facebook page that she's been chosen as an instructor there, and she has done that at past conferences.
Here is a link to their website: https://www.clickawayconference.com

Why not ask your niece?

I just wondered if it was something anyone here had heard of or participated in.

I do not have experience with it. I took a look at the website.
Looking at the web site, There are 3 sets of classes for 3 days. There are 3 tiers of ticket prices offering 1, 5, and 7 “additional” classes. Additional to what? What is included in the basic package.
The FAQ section states the following:
*****************************
What's included with my ticket?
Snap, Luster and Gloss tickets get you three days of incredible interactive programming, access to sponsor pop-ups & perks, and admission to the on-site VOICE Gallery. Additionally, you'll enjoy a gorgeous continental breakfast spread Saturday & Sunday mornings, along with three fabulous events: our peachy Bellini Social registration event (with welcome gift!), Opening Night Party, and Closing Reception.
Each attendee will build a Custom Schedule, and the number of classes varies by ticket level.
*****************************
Ok so there is the answer. The basic ticket buys you the things listed above plus one class. It is difficult to build a custom schedule around one class so that level looks to be for people who are selling things. It seems if you are there for the classes then you need to buy one of the higher tier tickets.
The next question is what are the classes? That question is posted in FAQ:
*******************************
Where can I see the full event schedule and class lineup?
We are working on developing the best line up yet! We have a limited number of Early Bird tickets available, and Early Bird registrants will receive 48 hour advance scheduling privileges when we launch the instructor lineup and programming, so lock in your spot!
*******************************
So no knowledge of the classes they are going to offer. But early bird registration gives you 48 hours to pick classes over the teeming masses.
I don’t know about this conference but I have been to professional conferences and so I do know about conferences.
There is a lot to be said for meeting other photographers and having conversations, about ideas techniques, equipment, making new contacts etc. There are meals and parties that could facilitate that.
And If you like that idea it appears that the venue is nice a hotel and usually the food is decent.
You dont’ say if you are a pro or a hobbyist, but my feeling is this is a conference targeted toward professionals in the photography business.
