Dear Honored Guests, Presenters, Sponsors, and Exhibitors,
On behalf of Deaf in Government (DIG) and with great enthusiasm and pride, we welcome you to our bi-annual DIG National Training Conference (NTC) 2025. We are thrilled to host this year’s event at the Marriott’s National Landing Hotel in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia, on Wednesday, November 12, to Friday, November 14, 2025, followed by the DIG Holiday Party on the evening of Friday, November 14, 2025.
Our conference theme this year, “Building Bridges: Connecting Leadership and Teams for a Stronger Future,” reflects our commitment to fostering collaboration, innovation, and empowerment across all levels of government. This conference is a unique opportunity to come together as a community to share knowledge, strengthen networks, and inspire one another toward a more effective and brighter future.
We are honored to present a dynamic lineup of guest speakers and presenters from federal, national, state, and local sectors. These leaders bring a wealth of experience and knowledge, and their dedication to advancing accessibility and excellence in government service is the cornerstone of this event.
Please visit our NTC 2025 website for the full schedule of sessions and speaker bios. Throughout the conference, members of the DIG Board and NTC Conference Committee will be available on-site to assist with any questions or requests.
If you are not yet a member of DIG, we encourage you to join us by registering online. Membership ensures you stay informed about upcoming events, initiatives, and opportunities to engage with our growing community.
Should you have any questions or considerations, please don’t hesitate to contact us at DIGConference@deafingov.org.
