Over 100 classes will be presented by more than 50 national and local speakers as well as staff from the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah, and FamilySearch employees. With classes ranging from beginner to advanced topics, there is something for everyone. Many classes are dedicated to the latest techniques and technologies being used in genealogical research, as well as the most up-to-date information about different cultures being studied. You can review the class schedule at www.fhexpos.com/expos/
Exhibitors from throughout the U.S. will teach about the latest products and services available in the industry. FamilySearch affiliated software vendors will also be on site and happy to help you test their products “hands on” with new.familysearch.org (FamilySearch Family Tree). Some of the products and services showcased will include genealogy magazines, hardware, software, wall charts, and research services. Representatives from various genealogical societies will also be on site.
The Expo is a fantastic way to get more involved in Family History and socialize with hundreds of others who have the same interests as you!.
The following is from FamilySearch support and is directed to Family History Consultants, Center Directors, and Extraction/Indexing Directors and Assistants, and Priesthood Leaders:

The following free classes will also be offered on Saturday for family history consultants, stake extraction directors and assistants, and priesthood leaders:
