5 answeredMISBO Annual Conference 2026 took place Wednesday, October 21 through Friday, October 23, 2026.
It was held at Atlanta Marriott Northwest at Galleria, 200 Interstate North Parkway East, Atlanta, GA 30339, United States.
Independent school professionals attend, including business officers, business office staff, human resources, facilities, auxiliary services, librarians, and technology directors.
It is most useful for independent school business officers and the HR, facilities and technology staff who work alongside them, since the program was built for those roles and MISBO is registered with NASBA to offer continuing professional education. The 50th anniversary year added a concert and a beer tasting, which favors people who value community among peers at independent schools; those outside that sector, or who want a large exhibit-driven show, would find the fit narrower.
Independent school business professionals typically wear business casual, with slacks, blouses or collared shirts and an optional blazer. The 70s-inspired concert night may have drawn some retro touches, though regular casual attire is usually fine.
