Choosing Courses
Yes! We have five distinct course formats.
Learning Lab
Learning Labs offer a unique opportunity to work with your dog or observe others working with dogs, all while being guided by the experienced ClickerExpo faculty. Certain Learning Labs are for humans only, as indicated in the course descriptions, and pre-registration is not required for these Participant spots. You must pre-register for any dog/handler spot in a Learning Lab before arriving at ClickerExpo, as space is limited. However, no pre-registration is necessary to observe!
Session
Dive into a topic through a dynamic presentation that incorporates lecture, videos, and PowerPoint. Some Sessions may also include opportunities for audience participation.
Dem-OH!
Learn about a training topic and watch it come to life! Live demonstrations from world-class trainers working with their animals, the attendees’ animals and, possibly, attendees themselves. Volunteers can participate on the fly, as needed and requested by speakers. It includes demonstrations, presentations, and audience Q&A.
Office Hours
Speakers pair up for an informal, open Q&A with attendees. Dogs are welcome and can become part of the conversation.
Panel Discussion
Delve into a specific topic in a moderated discussion with a panel of speakers gathered together on our virtual stage, with time for audience Q&A. Ready for lively discussion, unique perspectives, and the expertise of those who are the best at what they do? Let’s Talk!
In the ClickerExpo Portland conference program, courses are color-coded by format type. You can see what the colors mean in the key at the top of the page.
Also, if you click on a title, you’ll find the “Course Type” directly under the speaker's name.
Our Portland program features 50+ learning choices through up to six simultaneous courses and multiple formats all day, every day. Unless otherwise noted in the description, the course is new!
There are a very limited number of Portland 2024 courses that were presented originally virtually at ClickerExpo LIVE and have been reimagined and reinvented for the in-person environment.
There are even fewer courses that were also presented in prior years. For these courses, the content will be similar but the presentation will be updated and the experience will be unique—and you’ll likely learn something new!
Learning Labs are back at ClickerExpo Portland!
Learning Labs provide an opportunity to work with your dog or to observe others working with dogs under the tutelage of the ClickerExpo faculty.
You must register for dog/handler spots in Learning Labs before arriving at ClickerExpo, as space is limited. We recommend that you choose Learning Labs during your registration in order to have the widest choice. Spots sell quickly!
- There is a $17.95 fee for each dog/handler spot in a Learning Lab.
- There are some Learning Labs for humans only - let your dogs rest! Be sure to read course descriptions fully. Spots in the humans-only learning labs are complimentary and limited to the room capacity, and participants will be chosen during the Learning Lab (registration not required).
- Observer spots are complimentary and registration is not required.
Some Learning Labs have prerequisite sessions and participant notes with requirements for participating dog/handler teams. Learn more in the FAQs below and be sure to read the course descriptions fully.
Each registrant can reserve up to two spots in Learning Labs to receive coaching from the presenter(s). Two- and one-day attendees for up to one Learning Lab spot.
Please note that these spots are extremely limited and do sell quickly.
There are limited dog/handler spots in Learning Labs that require pre-registration to get coaching from the presenter(s). There is a maximum of 2 Learning Lab spots per registrant.
- Some Learning Labs are meant for you to work with your dog. Those Labs have limited dog/handler spots for $17.95.
- Others are meant to develop your skills and are for humans only. Those Labs have no charge and registration is not required.
Make sure to read the course descriptions and Learning Lab prerequisites and participant notes fully.
Prefer to simply observe? That’s fine too, and no pre-registration is required in that case. You may attend an unlimited number of Labs as an observer but seating is limited, so make sure to get to your preferred courses early to get a seat.
We're glad you asked! We have a handy video that shows you how to add the Learning Lab spotsSpotlight Spot to your agenda in registration. (Press play on the video below. To make it bigger, click the button in the lower right-hand corner.)
You do not need to pre-register to observe or to participate in human-only learning labs.
A couple of Learning Labs are based on concepts presented in a preceding Session. Labs that are linked to Sessions have "In Action" in their titles; and the corresponding Session will be listed as a prerequisite for the Lab. Note that the prerequisite Session is only a requirement if you are a participant in the Lab, but Lab observers are strongly encouraged to attend the Session as well.
Learning Lab faculty members assume that participants have attended the prerequisite Session, if there is one. Please do not register to participate in a Lab if you do not plan to take the prerequisite Session.
There are Learning Labs that are not directly linked to Learning Sessions; these Labs offer great exploratory learning opportunities.
You will see that Learning Lab descriptions have Participant Notes, which include dog/handler skills, equipment, and more that speakers will expect those that sign up for the dog/handler spots to have/have available during the Learning Lab. Please be sure to check the participant notes before registering for a dog/handler spot.
Additionally, ClickerExpo is a new environment for many people and dogs. Generally, dogs participating in learning labs should already understand the click/treat relationship, be comfortable with normal handling, and be able to work in close quarters with other dogs. Learn more about how to make sure your dog will be comfortable on our Bringing a Dog page.
No. You can either register for an available Learning Lab or join the waitlist for one that is full.
Here's how the waitlist works:
- As attendees change their schedules, spots open up.
- When a spot opens up and you are on the waitlist, you will be notified by email in the order you joined the waitlist.
- To add the Lab, see the question see Section 3: View/Modify Registration.
- You will have 12 hours before the next person on the waitlist is notified. Details will be provided in the e-mail.
**Please Note: Being on the waitlist does not guarantee you the next available spot. When a spot opens up, you will be notified in the order you were waitlisted, and new registrants will be able to register, but only the first to do so will be added. One (1) week after you are notified, you will be removed from the waitlist if you have not chosen to register for the open spot. We encourage you to add events@clickertraining.com to your email contacts to ensure receipt of all emails.
**Learning Lab limits will still apply when you are notified of an open spot. If you choose to add a lab you have been notified of, but have reached your limit, you will need to modify your schedule.
- Sessions, Panels, Dem-OH!s, Office Hours, and observing Learning Labs are open seating, so you can register for the conference without knowing your full schedule! As always, seating for these courses will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. While it is unlikely that a room will reach capacity, it is possible. If a room is full, you’ll be able to choose another, fantastic course during that time period.
- You must reserve Dog/Handler spots in Learning Labs ahead of time.

ClickerExpo Washington DC features curated, shared experiences for all attendees to ground our discussions while the many course choices allow a deep exploration of individual interests.
Join us on an exploration of training and teaching excellence! We examine and experience the principles, practices, and insights that ClickerExpo faculty members use to achieve high levels of success in their diverse fields consistently—and how they can help you do the same.
Friday
On Friday morning, we set the stage for exploring excellence by bringing the entire conference together for a common set of experiences that will anchor our first day.
In the afternoon, choose your path for building on the morning’s themes by selecting the Sessions and/or speakers that you most want to see. Each Session is designed so that you can peer inside the minds of ClickerExpo faculty members to see what they see, hear what they hear, and, most importantly, understand how they process it all. The opportunities, the obstacles, and the solutions come alive like never before with our “thinking out loud” programming.
Saturday
On Saturday morning buckle in for the second set of stage-setting presentations on achieving excellence. We’ll spend the morning exploring excellence all together, setting the foundation for another afternoon full of choices that bring learning alive. Choose based on your interest in the topic, faculty, or try something completely new!
Sunday
On Sunday morning, choose from an array of course options and explore the Sessions that align with your interests. fter lunch, we will reconvene as a group to experience three different and successive Sessions that will bring together the weekend’s learning and serve as a guide for when you get home.
Yes! We have five distinct course formats.

You can schedule your Labs any way you choose. For example, if you are going for three days, you can participate in one Lab on Friday and two on Saturday, one each day, or three the same day. You choose what fits your schedule best.
Yes. If the Lab you want is full, you can place your name on the waitlist and also select another Lab that is open. Here's how it works:
- As attendees change their schedules, spots open up.
- When a spot opens up, you will be notified by email in the order you joined the waitlist.
- To add the Lab, see the question see Section 3: View/Modify Registration.
- You will have 24 hours before the next person on the waitlist is notified. Details will be provided in the e-mail.
**Please Note: Being on the waitlist does not guarantee you the next available spot. When a spot opens up, you will be notified in the order you were waitlisted, and new registrants will be able to register, but only the first to do so will be added. We encourage you to add events@clickertraining.com to your email contacts to ensure receipt of all emails.
**Learning Lab limits will still apply when you are notified for an open spot. If you choose to add a lab you have been notified of, but have reached your limit, you will need to modify your schedule.
If an opening occurs prior to the start of Expo, we will contact you by email. Once Expo has begun:
- If there is a Lab that interests you, check with the Expo Registration Desk for availability. If there is space they can register you for that Lab.
- Open Labs are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The options for Labs are:
- Observer — you are going to the Lab to watch only. If you have a service dog or a small dog that fits under your seat, you may bring the dog with you, but you should not work with your dog during the Lab.
- Dog & Handler — you will be bringing a dog with you and you will be working with your dog during the Lab. See participant notes in individual course descriptions for a more detailed understanding of the skills required and activities planned for each Lab.
- Demo Volunteer - you are going to the Lab to watch only and volunteer your dog to be handled by a speaker and/or lab coach in a Lab demonstration.
Service dogs are always welcome.
You will see that Learning Labs frequently list another course as a "prerequisite." To keep the Labs at the appropriate pace, speakers will assume that you have attended the prerequisite Session.
- If You Are a Participant: If you intend to work with your dog in a Lab, you must attend the prerequisite Session. The Labs build on the material in the prerequisite Session; you would have a difficult time keeping up with the Learning Lab if you did not attend the prerequisite Session.
- If You Are an Observer: If you are attending a Lab as an observer, we recommend that you attend the prerequisite Session as well, but it is not a requirement. As an observer who has not attended the prerequisite Session, please refrain from asking questions during the Lab. Those questions were likely answered in the prerequisite Session.
Participants in a Learning Lab may not skip the prerequisite Session. The purpose of the Lab is to put into practice concepts, skills, and ideas presented in the prerequisite course. The instructor will assume that you have been to the prerequisite Session and will conduct the Lab on that basis. Show that you respect other participants' time and get the most out of the Lab by attending the prerequisite Session.
If you are attending a Lab as an observer, we recommend that you attend the prerequisite Session as well, but it is not a requirement. As an observer who has not attended the prerequisite Session, please refrain from asking questions during the Lab. Experience has shown that those questions were likely answered in the prerequisite Session.
ClickerExpo 2020 registration includes access to more than 75 courses, including observer spots in Learning Labs (on a space-available basis). You also have access to reserve working spots in Labs.

We continue to strongly encourage all attendees to take preventative measures to protect themselves from severe illness.
