The conference starts on October 15, 2026.

It takes place at Kirkwood Linn County Regional Center in Hiawatha, Iowa.

The event focuses on women in safety, and the organizer says everyone is welcome.

It is most useful for women working in occupational safety in eastern Iowa who want a one-day regional event covering safety standards and career development, with vendors showing PPE for women and men. Safety professionals seeking deep technical certification content or a large national exhibit would get less from a single-day event hosted by a community college, though the event states all are welcome.

Safety professionals at regional conferences usually wear business casual, such as slacks and a polo or blouse, and some attend in company-branded work wear. October in Iowa is cool, so a jacket or cardigan is sensible.
