American Payroll Association's Annual Congress 2015
Submitted by American Payroll Association
For the American Payroll Association’s 33rd Annual Congress, the association developed a Hunger Games-style “Payroll Games” that played off the popular franchise and appealed to the attendees from the payroll and accounts payable industry. In addition to educational workshops, speaker sessions, and an expo, the convention provided an element of hands-on learning for attendees through the “Payroll Games,” which incorporated on-theme activities such as costume contests, photo booths, and “Tribute”-like competitions. The event, which took place at the MGM Grand Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, saw a 26 percent increase in attendance over 2014, and social media activity surrounding the games reached an all-time high for the Congress.
