The International Legal Technology Association (ILTA) annual educational conference of 2019 (known as ILTACON) kicked off yesterday with several networking events, and begins in earnest today with the first day of sessions. As always, eDiscovery Daily will once again be covering the show. Over the next four days, we will provide a description each day of some of the sessions related to eDiscovery to give you a sense of the topics being covered. Here are some of the sessions of interest in the main conference tracks today.

Are we left, then, with no true educational conferences? Not entirely. Let’s take a look at some conferences that are still primarily focused on education.

Hard to believe, but we’re less than a week away from ILTACON 2019, being held this year at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort in sunny (and hot and humid) Orlando!

The conference kicks off with some networking activities on Sunday and starts in earnest with sessions Monday through Thursday. As usual, some of those sessions look interesting (especially for litigation support professionals), so let’s take a look at some of the more promising sessions to attend next week.

In this series, I’ll take a look at some of their observations and provide some of my own and analysis of legal tech conferences out there today.

Last time, we talked about addressing parameters of production up front to ensure that those requirements make sense and avoid foreseeable production problems well before the production step. Today, we will talk about quality control (QC) mechanisms to make sure that the production is complete and accurate.
