In lieu of the in-person DAF Data, Analytics, and AI Forum (cancelled due to government regulations), we will be hosting a free, virtual Lunch & Learn Series throughout the month of April. This series will bring the forum’s cutting-edge content directly to you!

The Lunch & Learn Series will be run in two different Teams rooms simultaneously. The schedule will be changing continuously. Please refer to the Lunch & Learn Series Agenda on the Participant Page tab for the most up-to-date schedule.

 

Lunch and Learn Details:

  • Each Monday, registrants will receive an email with the links to the rooms. To view the MOST up-to-date schedule, please visit the Lunch & Learn Participant Page. Presenters, please make sure you are registered to receive these weekly emails.
  • Attendees will wait for admittance each time they join/rejoin a room.
  • Attendees will not have camera/mic access unless allowed by a presenter or MORS moderator. Attendees are encouraged to use the chat to ask questions unless unmuted by the current presenter.
  • Each room will remain open between presentations occurring on the same day. Attendees are welcome to remain in the room should they desire to wait for the start of the next presentation.

Command PE Competition

Command PE MAJCOM Competition

Interested in competing in an intense and engaging team based wargaming competition? Think your team or MAJCOM has what it takes to own the crown for Air Dominance? Let us know you are interested when registering for the conference!

While registering, please select your interest and choose your MAJCOM to be entered into the competition.

You do not need a team right away nor do you need experience in wargaming or simulation software. Everything will be taught and there will folks on hand to help. Just bring your strategy, intellect, and desire to compete against your fellow Airmen and Guardians!

More information about the competition will be posted as we move closer to the event date. Those registered as interested will receive email updates on how to compete and form teams. Indicating interest does not commit you to compete. Competition will have limited interference with attendees ability to attend sessions/keynotes, and present if you are a briefer.
