EPIQ Committees
There are three primary committees that run the EPIQ conference. The Quorum Outreach and Research Foundation is a lead non-profit that handles finances. Logistics of the meeting and planning are controlled by the EPIQ Steering Committee, which collaborates with QORF and other partners. The EPIQ Curriculum Committee collaborates with a variety of partners on iterative improvements to the curriculum. For all committees, members are selected by popular vote of attendees of the conference. Voting members include: 1) registered attendees, 2) any committee members, 3) invited guests to the venue. Votes typically occur on the second to last day of the venue.
Steering Committee
The primary responsibilities of this committee include planning, registration, and working with hosting venues to ensure a smooth conference. Members handle registration and scheduling details.
